Home at Last Access Down Payment Assistance Grant

Financial Assistance for Homebuyers in Nevada

The Nevada Rural Housing Authority’s inclusive home financing program, The Home at Last Access Down Payment Assistance Grant, allows borrowers a number of options on the amount of assistance they require. Qualifying applicants receive a customizable grant with different loan types, including FHA, VA, USDA, or the Fannie Mae HFA Preferred Conventional loan. All Home at Last loans are 30-year, fixed rate mortgages, and the grants do not have to be paid back.

Available Assistance
The program offers different grant options which provide borrowers with up to $22,600 in down payment assistance. Applicants with FHA, VA, and USDA-RD loans have down payment options ranging from 2 to 5 percent of their loan amount (depending on the loan type). For applicants with the Fannie Mae HFA Preferred Conventional loan, the down payment options are either 3, 4, or 5 percent of the loan amount.

Eligibility Requirements
In order to be considered eligible for the Hole At Last Applicants must meet credit score requirements. FHA, VA, and USDA-RD loans require a minimum credit score of 640 (or 680 for manufactured homes).

All applicants must fall under the program's $95,500 income limit.
