How can I get more house for my money?
Some Highlights
With so few homes on the market right now, widening the scope of your search to include nearby areas could help you find more options in your budget.
You can also work with a trusted lender to consider alternative financing options and search for down payment assistance.
If you’ve been searching for a home but are concerned about rising costs, make sure you have a team of trusted real estate professionals for expert advice.
Massachusetts Options
Check out www.masshousing.com and sign up for training and programs that change often. Some programs provide grants (you don't have to pay back) and some provide low cost loans (they take a first lien position). Either program can help first time home buyers get much needed cash for down payment assistance and/or to help pay for closing costs.
Until next time,
Stay real informed!
