Ohio Heroes Down Payment Assistance Program

Ohio Heroes Down Payment Assistance Program es un segundo préstamo diferido para compradores de vivienda en Statewide, Ohio. Ohio Heroes is OHFA's workforce DPA / interest-rate-discount program for public-service workers including veterans, active-duty military, reservists, police, firefighters, EMTs/paramedics, teachers/school staff, and healthcare workers. Eligible borrowers receive a discounted first-mortgage interest rate plus 2.5% or 5% of the purchase price as a 0% interest deferred second mortgage, fully forgiven after 7 years. Ohio Heroes recognizes public-service workers - veterans, active-duty military, reservists/National Guard, police officers, firefighters, EMT/paramedics, K-12 teachers and school district administrators/professional staff, and healthcare workers (physicians, nurses, STNAs, etc.) - by offering a discounted first-mortgage interest rate (typically 0.25% below standard OHFA Your Choice! rate) PLUS down payment assistance of either 2.5% or 5% of the home's purchase price. The DPA is structured as a 0% interest, deferred second-mortgage loan that is 100% forgiven after the borrower stays in the home for 7 years. The combination of reduced first-mortgage rate plus DPA produces materially lower lifetime payments for qualifying public-service borrowers. Los fondos provienen de Tax-exempt Mortgage Revenue Bonds and other OHFA capital sources.
