Philly First Home Program

Philly First Home Program是面向Philadelphia，Pennsylvania购房者的补助金，由Philadelphia Housing Development Corporation (PHDC)管理。 A City of Philadelphia homebuyer assistance grant of up to $10,000, or 6% of the purchase price, whichever is lower. Funds may be applied to principal reduction, down payment and loan closing costs. Open to first-time buyers — including anyone who has not owned a home in the past three years — purchasing a single-family home or duplex inside Philadelphia. Condominiums are not eligible. One-on-one homeownership counseling through a City-funded housing counseling agency must be completed BEFORE the Agreement of Sale is signed, which is the step buyers most often miss. The grant is not free and clear: the City states it must be repaid if the buyer moves or refinances before living in the home for 15 years. Up to $10,000 (or 6% of purchase price, whichever is lower) toward principal, down payment and closing costs. Grant, not a monthly payment — but repayable if you move or refinance within 15 years. Counseling is free and City-funded. Income limits scale with family size with no household-size cap. Program materials published in English, Spanish and Simplified Chinese. 资金来自City of Philadelphia — Department of Planning and Development, Division of Housing and Community Development (DHCD), administered by PHDC。

Philly First Home Program提供最高$10,000的援助。 该项目可与Explicitly bundled with Turn the Key: PHDC advertises up to $75,000 in Turn the Key mortgage buydown assistance plus up to $10,000 from Philly First Home on a newly built TTK home. Other homebuyer grants may be combined, but PHDC asks buyers to confirm compatibility with their housing counselor. A City-funded counseling agency (New Kensington CDC) states Philly First Home cannot be combined with First Front Door or the PHFA K-FIT grant; that exclusion is not corroborated on any City or PHDC page — treat as unconfirmed.结合使用。 金额是该项目公布的上限，并非报价——具体每人的援助金额由Philadelphia Housing Development Corporation (PHDC)决定。

The City does not publish whether repayment is prorated or whether a lien or second mortgage is recorded — confirm with DHCD (215-686-9749) or a City-funded housing counselor. 免除和还款条款由项目设定，并可能变化——申请前请在项目官方网页上确认。

Philly First Home Program面向首次购房者和将房屋作为主要住所自住的购房者。 此处的“首次”有例外情况：Buyers who have not owned a home in the past three years also count as first-time buyers. 关于信用，该项目说明：Not published by PHDC; the first-mortgage lender sets credit requirements. 须参加购房者教育课程，由One-on-one counseling at a City-funded housing counseling agency, required before the Agreement of Sale.

The Agreement of Sale must be signed by both homebuyer and seller. Condominiums are not eligible. Apply through a City-funded housing counseling agency; bring total annual family income, the source of that income (employment, SSI, DPA, etc.) and the number of family members who will live in the home. REPAYMENT: the City states the grant must be repaid if you move or refinance before living in the home for 15 years — this is published on phila.gov but does NOT appear on the PHDC program page or the 3/26 flyer, so buyers reading only PHDC materials will not learn the grant is repayable. Still unpublished by any official source: whether repayment is full or prorated, whether a lien or second mortgage is recorded, any minimum credit score, any maximum purchase price, any eligible-loan-product list, and any participating-lender restriction. The PHDC application-process page publishes the steps only as a Road Map graphic/PDF, not as text.
