How to Purchase: A Step-by-Step Guide
Determine Eligibility
Before beginning the purchasing process, it’s important to determine if you qualify for the affordable housing program. Eligibility is typically based on income, household size, and other factors defined by government guidelines.
- Income Requirements: Check the income limits for your area to ensure you meet the criteria for affordable housing.
- Household Size: The number of people in your household can affect your eligibility and the type of assistance available.
- Other Criteria: There may be additional factors, such as employment status or credit history, that influence eligibility.
For detailed information on qualifying, contact our office or visit the Affordable Housing Program website to review the specific requirements for your location.
