As mentioned above there is the Homes for Heroes programs that help police, firefighters, teachers, nurses etc. If you have a client who is a Veteran and first-time buyer the Dream Maker program provides a matching grant based on their available funds. I have included links below for the Texas State Affordable Housing which is a great place to start finding programs (it has a questionnaire buyers can complete to see what is available to them) as well as the Dream Maker program. Lenders can definitely give you more insight into these programs as well

Hi Jesus,

There are many Down Payment Assistance (DPA) Programs out there. There are also special programs for Heroes - Teachers, Firefighters, Law Enforcement Officers, Nurses, EMT's/EMS. I have relationships with several Loan Officers, whom work with the different programs. If you would like to know the best program for you and your family, I'd be happy to get you in touch!

I have always liked this site Down Payment Resource

They research and track all types of state and local programs across the country and match those to specific neighborhoods, cities and counties. They gather all the data and put it in one place.

I know there are also some programs out their for law enforcement and teachers. I agree with Vanessa, I would reach out to your lender as each program is specific.

Hi Jesus--

There are lots of Down Payment Assistance programs available to buyers in Houston. You can look on the TDHCA website to see their list. There is also the SETH Program, USDA loans, VA loans, Harris County DAP, etc. The best thing to do would be to get in touch with a local loan officer, and they will be able to educate you on this topic. Each program has it's own qualifications as well. Hope this helps! Good Luck! V
