Game-Changing Down Payment Assistance Program for California First-Time Homebuyers!

Are you a California resident dreaming of owning your first home but struggling to save for a down payment? Citizens Financial is thrilled to introduce our revolutionary Down Payment Assistance (DPA) Program designed to make your dreams of homeownership a reality. With our program, eligible first-time homebuyers across California can now purchase a home valued up to one million dollars with a fully forgivable second mortgage, turning your aspirations into tangible milestones.

How Does Our DPA Program Work?

Our DPA program offers incredible benefits, making it stand out from traditional assistance programs. Here’s what you need to know:

Fully Forgivable Second Mortgage: Upon enrolling in our DPA program, you’ll receive a second mortgage, which becomes fully forgiven after making six consecutive payments. This feature ensures that you receive essential financial support while maintaining flexibility and freedom in the long run.
Seller/Homebuilder-Covered Closing Costs: We understand that closing costs can be a significant burden for first-time homebuyers. With our DPA program, you can breathe a sigh of relief as we offer up to 100% coverage of closing costs by the seller or homebuilder of your choice, allowing you to focus on the joys of homeownership.

Eligibility Criteria:

Our goal is to assist as many California residents as possible in achieving their dream of homeownership. To be eligible for our DPA program, you need to meet any one of the following categories:
