Florida Down Payment Assistance and Hometown Heroes

What is the Florida Hometown Heroes program?

A Florida Housing Finance Corporation program offering down payment and closing cost help to eligible first-time buyers in qualifying professions. Funding levels and rules change each year.

What other help exists for buyers?

FHA loans allow low down payments. VA and USDA loans allow zero down for eligible buyers. Some counties and lenders offer added grants. Ryan and Megan Winslow match buyers to the programs they qualify for.

How do I start?
