Many buyers assume homeownership is out of reach if they earn less than the area's median income - but that's not always true. From FHA and USDA loans to down payment assistance programs, there are real pathways to homeownership - even if you have little savings.
MegPrime, an affiliate and subsidiary of Texas-based Megatel Homes, is set to launch its digital currency, the MP Token, designed as a rewards platform that renters and homeowners can tap into as a financial path to homeownership. As an inducement to participate in the rewards MP Token program, the program will offer up to $25,000 in down payment assistance and homebuyer assistance to renters who sign up.
First of all, we're working hard to use the word assistance less often. Saying assistance means that down payment programs are just a lifeline for people who can't afford to buy a home otherwise. These programs have, indeed, helped many otherwise eligible borrowers who lack funds for their down payment or cash to close to qualify. But in fact, down payment programs aren't only for cash-strapped, first-time or underserved buyers.
