California Forgivable Down Payment Loan Program: “Forgivable Equity Builder Loan “
California released a new forgivable down payment program.
“The Forgivable Equity Builder Loan gives first-time homebuyers a head start on this with immediate equity in their homes via a loan of up to 10% of the purchase price of the home. The loan is forgivable if the borrower continuously occupies the home as their primary residence for five years. The Forgivable Equity Builder Loan is a forgivable subordinate loan program that may only be used with a CalHFA first mortgage.” (California Housing Finance Agency website).
Home prices are high and it can feel impossible to buy a home. This loan comes with a 0 percent interest rate and if the borrower stays in the home for more than 5 years, then they do not have to repay the junior loan. The CalHFA program is for first time home buyers in California purchasing a home to live in.
