local homebuying programs

Many local governments use HUD funds (both Community Development Block Grants and HOME program funds) to support local homebuying programs.

If you're looking for affordable housing, do 4 things:

  1. Read all about buying a home on the HUD home page

  2. Call a HUD-funded housing counseling agency in your area to discuss your options

  3. Contact your local government (Housing and Community Development Office, Mayor's Office, or County Executive's Office) for information on local homebuying programs.

  4. Contact your HOME program contact to see if there are any local homebuying programs available.

You may be able to find out more information about local homebuying programs on your city's home page.
