Down Payment Assistance for First Time Homebuyers

HFA's new HomeTown Heroes Plus program expands homeownership opportunities for essential employees of military, public service, and health organizations who purchase homes in any of the eligible areas.

First time home buyers who use one of HFA's Home Key Mortgage Programs to purchase a home may borrow additional funds(up to $15,000) through the Authority's Making Pinellas Home Down Payment Assistance Program.

Not a First Time Homebuyer?

house Through our Target Area Loans, HFA offers higher income limits and purchase price limits for homebuyers who purchase a home in one of the HFA target areas.

Homeowners may be able to prevent foreclosure of their homes through our ongoing Foreclosure Prevention program that helps persons nearing the financial edge to regain their footing.

HFA Assists the Rental Housing Community

Home ownership is not for everyone. Whether by circumstance or by choice, many residents continue to need rental housing.
