Down Payment Assistance

Make Homeownership Possible

Your biggest barrier to buying a home is often the down payment. At Van Patten Mortgage Group, we specialize in helping you access Down Payment Assistance (DPA) programs designed to make homeownership affordable and achievable.

DPA

What is Down Payment Assistance?

DPA programs reduce or even eliminate the cash you need upfront. These can include:

  • Grants – free funds you never repay
  • Deferred or forgivable loans – low or no interest, often forgiven after a set period
  • Closing cost credits – extra savings applied directly at signing

Grants: Free Money for Your Home

Grants are the most valuable form of assistance—money that never has to be paid back. State, county, and city housing agencies regularly fund programs that help first-time and qualifying buyers cover their down payment. Our team makes sure you don’t miss out on these opportunities.

Forgivable & Deferred Loans

Some programs provide “silent” second mortgages with no monthly payments. Stay in the home for the required time, and the loan may be fully forgiven. This option allows you to buy now, with less financial stress up front, and potentially owe nothing later.

Closing Cost Credits & Perks

Many programs also offer help with closing costs or lower your interest rate. These benefits put more money back in your pocket, reduce monthly expenses, and make your transition into homeownership smoother.

Why Use DPA Programs?

Down payment assistance helps you:

  • Buy sooner instead of waiting years to save
  • Keep your savings for emergencies or home upgrades
  • Reduce your real out-of-pocket cost
  • Start building equity and wealth faster
