Questions, answered

What are the income limits for down payment assistance in Idaho?

26 down payment assistance programs in Idaho publish an income limit, a purchase price cap, or both. 13 express the limit as a share of the area median income for the county where the home is, and 6 publish a flat dollar figure instead.

Why does the same program have different income limits in different counties?

Because most limits are set as a share of area median income, which HUD publishes per county and revises annually. A program with one published share therefore admits a different dollar figure in each county, and the program adjusts that figure for household size in its own table.

Is a published limit the same as being approved?

No. An income limit is one eligibility rule among several — credit requirements, purchase price caps, occupancy rules and homebuyer education all apply separately, and the first-mortgage lender underwrites on its own terms. Always confirm current figures with the administering agency.

Is Hey Prescott a lender?

No. Hey Prescott is an educational directory of down payment assistance programs. We list programs and link to official sources; we do not make loans or give individualized lending advice.
