| Nehemiah
Down Payment Assistance Program ...............................................................................
Nehemiah will gift up to 3% of the final sales price to a
qualified Nehemiah buyer for the down payment. This allows a you to buy a home with no
down payment when combined with a FHA loan. This program requires the assistance of the
home seller.
Nehemiah is a private California non-profit housing
corporation. Nehemiah is not a government program. The Nehemiah Program gifts money to
qualified buyers to purchase Nehemiah properties throughout the United States.
Before a Nehemiah transaction is scheduled to record,
Nehemiah delivers the participating buyer's 3% gift money taken from a pre-existing pool
of funds and delivers it to the closing company. The seller makes a contribution only
after the successful close. Nehemiah is using its own money from a pre-existing trust
fund.
Using the Nehemiah program to buy a home is quite simple
and can be broken into two simple steps.
- Get preapproved for a FHA Loan.
- Once approved, find a home and have your Realtor write up
the offer using the Nehemiah program.
