Ang City of Gary First-Time Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance (Homeownership Opportunity Network) ay isang loan na mapapatawad para sa mga bibili ng bahay sa Gary, Indiana, na pinangangasiwaan ng City of Gary Community Development Division (Homeownership Opportunity Network). The City of Gary's Down Payment Assistance Program, delivered through the Homeownership Opportunity Network, provides forgivable loans toward down payment, principal reduction, and closing costs for homes in Gary's Qualified Census Tracts.

Buyers complete the HON homebuyer education workshop and must keep the home as their primary residence for a 5-year affordability period. Up to $30,000 for key personnel. Up to $10,000 (6% of price) for other Gary residents. Forgivable after 5-year residency. Covers down payment, closing costs, prepaids, points, and rate buy-downs. First-come, first-served.
