HPAP Loan for condo in Washington DC
I qualified for a 68,000 HPAP loan and got a pre-qualification letter from a lender for a max of 400k at 3%. I am looking at condos because home prices in DC under 400k are not realistic. The HPAP loan is:
The HPAP program is a 0% second trust loan that is deferred and is NOT a grant. The deferment period varies based upon the amount of the loan
5 years then amortizing for 40 years OR
Deferred until:
ξ the property is no longer the borrower’s primary residence;
ξ the property is refinanced under certain circumstances; OR
ξ the property is sold or title is otherwise transferred
What is the best option here? Sell the condo in <5 years assuming Ill make a profit or hold it and rent? Please advise.
