Borrowers may qualify for 3% downpayment financing with Key Possible – and it’s not just limited to first-time homebuyers. Some of the highlights of this special financing are:
- Your borrowers can have additional financed properties.
- A non-occupant co-borrower may help the buyers qualify for a one-unit property.
- Downpayment sources are less limited – including family contributions, employer-assistance programs, secondary financing and sweat equity.
- Interest rates and PMIs are typically lower than conventional financing.
- Borrowers can put 3% down on a single family home or 5% down on a two-unit.
- More lenient FICOⓇ Scores and DTI ratios are allowed.
Currently, the required income for this program is set to 80% of HUD Area Median Income (AMI) — by census tract, much of Chicagoland’s AMI has increased to $84,560.
