Exciting and sometimes daunting! However, don't let yourself become overwhelmed with the process. It is my plan to give you some useful information in this article about first time home buyer grants which will help you along the way.

Before we get to the topic of first time home buyer grants, I would like to give you some fun facts about your chosen state. (If you are relatively new to Georgia, I don't want you to look too much like a tourist!) These facts were obtained from the State of Georgia's official website located on the web at http://sos.georgia.gov/.

Georgia's state crop is the peanut. (Sometimes you feel like a…well, you get the idea!)

The state song of Georgia is "Georgia on My Mind".

Georgia's state flower is the Cherokee Rose and its state wildflower is the Azalea.

The Vidalia Sweet Onion is Georgia's state vegetable and grits are Georgia's state prepared food.

"Wisdom, Justice & Moderation" is Georgia's state motto.

What a great motto! Sounds like a good place to settle down!

If Georgia is your choice, read on for information related to the Georgia first time home buyer grants program.

To begin with, the State of Georgia does offer a Georgia first time home buyer grant program for its residents. This is good news because not all states are able to offer assistance to first time home buyers. The state agency which maintains Georgia's first time home buyer grant program is the Georgia Department of Community Affairs. Georgia offers one type of grant. This grant is called the "Georgia Dream Homeownership Program". Whether you qualify or not will depend on the amount of your income. You should visit Georgia Department of Community Affairs to determine your eligibility.

In addition, the federal government offers grant assistance for first time home buyers in Georgia. This program is maintained by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development and is called the Homes and Communities program. Their website contains useful information and applications. The website for the grant program maintained by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development can be visited by using this link, HUD Grant Information.

Another website I would recommend that you view is Government Grants. This website offers a list of all federal government grant programs. It would be a good idea to take some time and browse through this site to see what it offers and the qualifications for application.

It is important to note that there is a plethora of local first time home buyer grant programs available from specific private organizations in Georgia.

Don’t forget the importance of your credit score. Even if you qualify for a grant, you still have to qualify for a loan. See my information on credit repair made easy if you need help.

If you don’t qualify for a grant you may qualify for down payment assistance. They are sometimes easier to obtain.
