Would You Like $15,000 in Down Payment Assistance

Wells Fargo is collaborating with non-profit organizations throughout the United States to offer down payment assistance and financial education to aspiring home owners. The down payment assistance program is called the NeighborhoodLIFT, and the City of Tampa is among the cities participating in this program. Eligible individuals could receive $15,000 for down payment assistance. The funds can only be used to purchase a primary, owner-occupied residence in the City of Tampa.

Interested home buyers must meet the program requirements which include the following:
· Must be approved for home financing.
· Household income must be equal to or less than 120% of the area median income.
· Must attend homebuyer education sessions before your closing — the sessions are available through Tampa Bay Community Development Corporation or a HUD-approved counseling agency.
· Buyer does not have to be a first-time homebuyer. If buyer the currently owns a home, it must be sold before closing, and it cannot be rented/leased.

Here are some important links that offer additional information about the step by step process, the income limits, as well as the mortgage checklist to obtain home financing successfully through Wells Fargo. Please contact me for more information, as well as the mortgage contact who has been instrumental in assisting my eager buyers thus far. Looking forward to hearing from you.
