With so many changes in the housing market and interest rate environment in the past 12 months, we have seen a lot of opportunities arise for first time home buyers. Many homes are sitting on the market longer and there is less competition. Introduced in 2018, Freddie Mac’s HomeOne® mortgage loan is designed to make financing more accessible for prospective home buyers as well as homeowners looking to refinance. Now this is a great program because it also for just 3% down on conventional financing and there are no income or geographical restrictions.
According to Freddie Mac:
“Available to qualified first-time homebuyers for a low down payment of just 3%, the Freddie Mac HomeOne® mortgage is a low down payment option that serves the needs of many first-time homebuyers, along with no cash-out refinance borrowers.
This mortgage solution allows you to help more first-time homebuyers achieve the milestone of homeownership, regardless of their income levels or geographic location. HomeOne® reflects our dedication to responsible lending, sustainable homeownership and improving access to credit.
With more flexibility for maximum financing, HomeOne® provides expanded opportunity and greater certainty to bring more borrowers to the closing table.”
Garrick Werdmuller, President and CEO of Fresh Home Loan Inc goes on to explain “A great thing about this loan program form Bay Area Home Buyers is there are no income restrictions.
