WHAT ARE THE REQUIREMENTS
TO PURCHASE AN AFFORDABLE HOME?
1. INCOME ELIGIBLE
You must be income eligible. Different programs have different rules related to income and asset requirements. Learn more about Program Eligibility.
2. HOMEBUYER EDUCATION
Attend a HUD-certified homebuyer education course and have a completion certificate.
3. MORTGAGE PRE-QUALIFICATION
Get a Mortgage Pre-qualification Letter from a participating lender for the affordable purchase price.
NOTE: Some builders and programs may require you to pre-qualify with their lender.
You should discuss your home mortgage options with a HUD certified housing counselor before you seek a pre-qualification letter from a lender.
4. AGREE TO RESALE RESTRICTIONS
Understand and agree to the resale restrictions that limit your appreciation (the amount of money you can make when you sell) and require you to owner-occupy the home as your primary residence. Other restrictions apply and may vary by program. Please see Sample City of Austin's Long-Term Affordability Restrictions.
