CHFA Down Payment Assistance for Home Buyers Denver Colorado

Are you looking to buy a home in the Denver Colorado area, but can’t seem to save up a down payment?

We can help! The Colorado Housing Finance Authority (CHFA), now has down payment assistance grants for home buyers anywhere in Colorado.  You can buy a home for as little as $1000 out of your own pocket!

There are two main types of down payment assistance available; Down payment grants and “silent” 2nd mortgages.

Down payment grants: Grants never have to be repaid and are available up to 4% of your mortgage loan amount. The negative of the grant is that your interest rate will be higher on your home loan.

Down payment “silent” 2nd mortgages: A silent 2nd is an additional mortgage on your home that doesn’t have a payment. Most silent 2nds also have a 0% interest rate, which is the case with a CHFA loan. The interest rate on the primary mortgage is lower with this type of assistance compared to the grant, and funds are available for up to 5% of your first mortgage amount. The silent 2nd is repaid when you one day sell your home.
