Community Partners Loan Pool (CPLP) is a statewide secondary-market funded affordable mortgage and DPA program for low- and moderate-income (≤80% AMI) first-time homebuyers in North Carolina. CPLP provides up to 20% of the sales price (typically capped at $30,000) as a 0%, deferred-payment second mortgage. CPLP is administered by DreamKey Partners, a Charlotte-based CDFI, in partnership with NCHFA, and is funded primarily by federal HOME funds and other affordable-lending capital sources.
