Households that include a person with a permanent disability and who receives SSI, SSDI, Veterans Disability, or some other form of disability income are eligible for this program provided they meet the qualification standards of the type of mortgage they apply for. This program is also available to home buyers over the age of 62. Home buyers using this program will have to meet income cap requirements.





HOME Family Program – There is a statewide home price limit of $195,700 for this program and it is only available for single and two parent families where there is at least one dependent child under the age of 18 living in the home. Furthermore, this program is only available for first time home buyers.
