Indiana First Time Home Buyer GrantsIndiana First Time Home Buyer Grants Are you considering the purchase of a home in Indiana? Purchasing a home in any state is an exciting prospect! 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 Indiana, I don't want you to look too much like a tourist!) These facts were obtained from the State of Indiana's official website. Sounds like a great place to put some roots down! If Indiana is your choice, read on for information related to the Indiana first time home buyer grants program. To begin with, the State of Indiana does not offer an Indiana first time home buyer grant program for its residents. However, the State of Indiana does maintain a program called First Home/PLUS, which offers down payment assistance to its residents. If eligible for this program, you will receive a loan "that has a zero interest rate and does not require payments. If you remain in your home for a certain length of time, the loan is 'forgiven', which means you never have to pay it back. In effect it becomes a grant, but only after you meet the requirements." The state agency which maintains this program is called the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority. You should visit the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority to determine your eligibility. In addition, the federal government offers grant assistance for first time home buyers in Indiana. 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. Don’t forget the importance of your credit score. Even if you qualify for Indiana first time home buyer grants, 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.
