Zero-down financing and down payment assistance
December 2, 2021
If you’re looking to buy a new home but don’t have the cash for a down payment, you may be interested in financing and down payment assistance programs that could put homeownership within reach!
First, there is the USDA Rural Development Loan. This loan is a zero-down plan, and is available in select areas deemed "rural developments." Our Emerald Falls community in Broken Arrow qualifies for this popular financing option. There's also the Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency (OHFA) Down Payment Assistance Program, which can help you finance your mortgage with no money down! It covers nearly an entire 3.5% down payment, and the income cap on this program is $150K, so most households in Oklahoma would qualify.
Always talk to your lender to learn what you options are - you may be surprised! Need a lender? We can help with that, too. We work with lenders all the time to help families educate themselves on loan programs and navigate the financial requirements for mortgages in a simple, no-pressure conversation.
They can even help with credit repair through our Clean Slate Program, guiding you closer to homeownership. With multiple programs available, and with with interest rates remaining favorable and affordable, now could be a great time to take the plunge!

What Our
Homebuyers Are Saying
"The ease of not having to take care of hardly anything has been wonderful. A new home, a retirement community and peace of mind knowing we had a community of folks just like us sounded like a little slice of heaven. It has been 3 years now and we are settled into our daily routine. Giggling on our front porch, cooking our favorite foods, putting together puzzles and enjoying the simple things in life."
