OverviewWho is Eligible?How to Get Started
Are you dreaming of homeownership but find the financial barrier of a down payment daunting? Fannie Mae's Home Ready® program is here to turn your dreams into reality with a new down payment assistance initiative. Understanding that the upfront costs can be a significant hurdle, Fannie Mae is now offering a substantial $2,500 credit to help very low-income borrowers.

Who Is Eligible for the Assistance?

This initiative is designed to make the home-buying process more accessible and affordable for first-time or repeat buyers with limited income. To qualify for the $2,500 credit, applicants must meet the following criteria:

  • The full $2,500 will be given upfront to be used toward the down payment or any items that must be prepaid at closing, such as homeowners’ insurance or government taxes (if applicable).”
  • Their income should not exceed 50% of the Area Median Income (AMI) for the location of the property they wish to purchase.

The Home Ready® program ensures that the credit is applied directly to the borrower's expenses, reducing the amount they need to bring to the closing table.
