ADDI PROGRAM DETAILS

President George W. Bush signed the American Dream Downpayment Initiative (ADDI) into law on December 16, 2003. Part of the American Dream Downpayment Act, the fund available under ADDI are allocated to eligible, participating state and local jurisdictions. They are meant to help low-income families realize the American dream of becoming a homeowner.

The Pima Tucson Homebuyers Solution created this program locally for individuals or families that qualify for assistance with a down payment. The grant can be combined with a FHA, VA, or Rural Housing 30-year fixed-rate mortgage, and the funding applies to existing homes, condos, or townhomes.
