BorrowSmart

BorrowSmart is a grant program offering $1,250 in grant funds, available if you’re under 80% of the area median income AND putting down less than 20%. The program cannot generally be paired with other assistance programs.

The assistance is paired with a 3%+ down conventional Home Possible loan and is a great way to get help with the down payment or closing costs.

80% of area median income in the Washington DC metropolitan area is $122,320.

Pursuing a BorrowSmart grant will require completing a one hour housing counseling session with our partner https://www.greenpath.com.  This phone session is something you can only do once under contract.  You’ll receive certificates following the session, which we will need you to fwd to us to prove eligibility.
