The Home In Five Single Family Bond Program
The Home In Five program is designed to help homebuyers purchase a newly constructed or existing home by providing a below-market introductory mortgage loan interest rate of 6.55% with a 5.00% grant for down payment assistance. This program is targeted to low and moderate income households, and loans will be made on a first-come, first-served basis (hurry, before the money runs out).

· Buyers must occupy the home as their principal residence.
· The program may only be used to purchase a home (i.e., no refinancing).
· Standard loan guidelines exist for qualification (i.e., adequate income, acceptable credit, and down payment requirement).
· The Purchase price limit for non-targeted areas is $311,625 while in targeted areas it is $380,875 (Targeted areas are areas in which buyers do not have to be first-time homebuyers and are subject to higher income and purchase price limits as shown on the table.)
