Homebuyers below 50% AMI qualify for $5000 in closing cost assistance and a $40,000 homebuyer subsidy. The subsidy is a forgivable loan with no-interest that exists as long as the buyer stays in the home for 15 years from the date of closing. If the buyer wants to leave before the 15 year period expires, they must sell the home and the subsidy must be returned as outlined in loan documents. Homebuyers may not rent the property during the 15 year period and must use it as their primary residence.
