HomeReady
The Affordable Home Loan You’ve Been Looking For
A HomeReady Loan Puts Homeownership Within Reach
You don’t always need a large down payment to purchase a home. Fannie Mae built the HomeReady mortgage especially for people with modest savings. Borrowers enjoy a lower down payment, flexible guidelines, and a monthly payment that matches their income.
Features and Benefits:
- Low down payment
- Income from extended family may help you qualify
- Gifts and grants available for a low down payment and closing costs (1-unit properties only)
- Co-borrowers may be able to assist with buying the home
- Additional sources of income may help you qualify, such as rental payments from a basement apartment
- Mortgage insurance lower than most conventional loans
