How to Get $35,000 in Home Buying Assistance with Florida’s Hometown Heroes Program
Saving for a down payment and closing costs is one of the biggest challenges for first-time buyers. That’s where Florida’s Hometown Heroes Program comes in, a program designed to give our community heroes up to $35,000 in financial help to make homeownership possible.
What Does the Program Offer?
Up to $35,000 for down payment and closing cost assistance.
A 0% interest loan — meaning you don’t pay interest on this money.
No monthly payments required. The assistance is repaid only if you sell, refinance, or stop living in the home as your primary residence.
Why It’s a Game-Changer
For many, the hardest part of buying a home isn’t affording the monthly payment, it’s coming up with the money upfront. The Hometown Heroes Program removes that barrier so you can focus on finding the right home.
Who Qualifies?
This program supports the people who make a difference every day, including:
Teachers and educators
First responders (police, firefighters, EMTs)
Healthcare workers and nurses
Childcare employees
Military members and veterans
