Getting started in Connecticut

[Account Closed]

Hey fellow 1st property-seeking newbs,

Many of you are familiar with the very favorable rates through CHFA for 1st-time buyers, and if you're looking to go that route for owner-occupied MFH, I wanted to share a program I stumbled across today that can work in tandem.

If you're looking in New Haven, Hartford, Fairfield or Litchfield counties, the Housing Development Fund might have a program that can be the difference of you pursuing that first property now or having to hold off. They have down payment assistance programs that range from 0% loans if you buy where you work to forgivable loans for certain areas.

Hope this can be helpful to someone. If I'm the last one to the party on this info, well, sorry for being redundant.
