Lowering the Out-of-Pocket Cost of Buying a Home

Many buyers save enough money for their down payment only to be surprised by closing costs—such as lender fees, title insurance, escrow reserves, and property appraisal charges—which can add an additional 2% to 5% to the purchase price. Closing Cost Assistance programs across Arizona allow you to cover these administrative costs using specialized grants and secondary funding options. Osvaldo “Wally” Olivares helps homebuyers combine closing cost assistance with primary mortgages to significantly lower their total cash needed at closing.

Custom-Tailored Strategies to Maximize Upfront Savings

Your available cash shouldn’t stand between you and your dream home. By evaluating your credit score, household income, and home location, we pair flexible first mortgage options (FHA, VA, USDA, or Conventional) with Arizona assistance funds like Home Plus or Home in Five Advantage. Whether using non-repayable grants or forgivable second loans to offset closing expenses, we structure your overall transaction to preserve your savings while maintaining a budget-friendly monthly mortgage payment.

"FAQs"

Down Payment Assistance includes grants, non-repayable gifts, or second mortgages that help buyers cover their required down payment and closing costs when purchasing a primary residence in Arizona.

Not always! While many DPA programs target first-time buyers (anyone who hasn’t owned a home in the last 3 years), several Arizona assistance programs are available to repeat buyers depending on location and income.

Most DPA programs require a minimum credit score starting around 620 to 640. However, options vary depending on whether you choose an FHA, VA, USDA, or Conventional underlying loan structure.

It depends on the specific program. Some programs offer 100% forgivable grants after a certain period of living in the home, while others offer low-interest or zero-interest second mortgages that are repaid upon refinancing or selling.
