52 Weeks Home will follow several families for one year, while they go through the process of buying a home.
Using an FHA mortgage, most families in the United States can purchase a home within one year. This is based on the FHA mortgage loan requirement of one year of positive credit history.
52 Weeks Home will explore how these families find and take first time home buyer classes, search for the real estate and mortgage professionals who will assist them, start bank accounts and create budgets, struggle with life style issues that impact their ability to continue on the path to homeownership, and spend time with their families and friends.
You are invited to join us for each weekly episode. Please tell us your story about your home buying process. We are especially interested in hearing from low-to-moderate income families who were able to use down payment assistance programs to finance their home purchase or are in the process of buying a home.
The more stories, the better. We can all learn from each other.
52 Weeks Home is the blog for myhomedownpayment.com, a nationwide directory of down payment assistance programs for low-to-moderate-income families.
