Explore Hometown Heroes down payment assistance
Hometown Heroes Program is a Florida program that helps frontline workers and community heroes buy a home by giving them money toward their down payment and closing costs. It’s designed to make homeownership more affordable for people who serve our communities every day.
Up to $35,000 in assistance for down payment and closing costs for eligible buyers, subject to program availability and funding.
0% interest on the assistance loan (you don’t pay interest on the help you receive), subject to program terms.
No monthly payments on the assistance loan, subject to program terms — it’s deferred until you sell, refinance, or pay off your home.
