We were recently informed from one of our lending partners that there is a new government program that can provide up to a 3% grant that can be used for downpayment and/or closing costs.  The grant does not have to be repaid!

The Grant made possible through the Program can be used towards the homebuyer’s down payment and/or closing costs on a 30-year fixed-rate fully amortized FHA, VA or USDA Mortgage Loan.

If you have questions, The Lund Team is here to help!
