Currently there are affordable housing units available to my knowledge but no city assisted Down Payment Assistance Programs. I would be happy to talk with you and give you the Federal and State options that you currently have available to you. If you are interested we can also discuss near by communities such as Brentwood and Concord.

I hope to talk with you soon.

P.S. I can also give you a third party recommendations of agents in that area if you wish. I have worked with many successful agents in the area.

Roxanne,

You can take advantage of the $8,000 Federal housing tax credit by purchasing in any city if you meet the requirements.

Here is the link for the details: http://www.federalhousingtaxcredit.com/


Also, if you purchase a new home, you are elegible for an additional $10,000 credit.

Here is the link for the details on that: http://www.ftb.ca.gov/individuals/New_Home_Credit.shtml


Please let me know if I can assist you with your property search.

Hello Roxanne, Yes, there are first time Buyers programs everywhere. You should talk to a Realtor who can connect you to a Lender that can help you find the right loan program for you. Everyone and every transaction is different so talk to someone who will help you.
