PHILADELPHIA, May 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- First-time aspiring homeowners often operate under the concept that getting a mortgage is extremely difficult or complicated. The good news is that home ownership can be much closer than they assume, if they know where to turn. Stepping up to help, is LISA HOME MORTGAGE, a boutique mortgage brokerage company in Philadelphia, who has a special emphasis on helping first-time homebuyers. LISA HOME MORTGAGE originates FHA and VA Loans for credit scores as low as 500, and Conventional Loans for credit scores as low as 620 (additional qualifications apply) www.LisaHomeMortgage.com.
"If someone wants to get an apartment, they may have to come up with first and last month's rent, and 1-2 month's security deposit. Imagine buying a home with the same monies you would use to get an apartment. The grant is an excellent supplement for first-time homebuyers, and helps soften the barrier-to- entry into homeownership," Lisa K. Farrell, CEO.
The "Philly First Home Program" is a grant offered through the City of Philadelphia, providing first-time homebuyers down payment and closing cost assistance in the amount of 6% of the home's purchase price, capped at $10,000. To qualify, applicants meet income requirements, attend the FREE City-funded homeownership counseling webinar before signing an Agreement of Sale for a home, and get pre-approved for a mortgage. The Urban League of Philadelphia is an approved homebuyer counseling center offering the webinar, which will be part 1 of a 2-part certification. Registration for the webinar is required.
The application process for pre-approval through LISA HOME MORTGAGE will take approximately 15 minutes. The pre-approval will be emailed to the applicants. Once pre-approved, applicants will know how much home can be afforded gaining more buying power. Applicants who cannot get pre-approved right away, will receive an Action Plan, with the immediate steps required to get pre-approved, eliminating any guess work.
