We are mission-based and we want to help you feel confident when buying a home with our sponsored homebuyer education classes and down payment assistance programs.

Homebuyer Education

  • We encourage you to take a CHFA-sponsored homebuyer education class early in the homebuying process.
  • Topics cover everything from selecting a realtor and lender to understanding “the hidden costs of homeownership.”
  • Taking the class is required to receive a CHFA mortgage loan.

Down Payment Assistance

The Sotos

Owning a home was a dream we shared. We wanted to settle down and be a family here. Now, we own something that's ours - we strived for it and we earned it!
