Affordable Homeownership
Qualifications
Have you ever dreamed of becoming a homeowner? Does homeownership seem unattainable? Our organization can help you become a first-time homebuyer. We specialize in new construction and rehab. According to the *U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development:
-
Creditworthy low-income and minority families face significant barriers to sustainable homeownership, a major vehicle for building wealth and economic opportunity.
-
Access to sustainable homeownership is expanded with fiscal assistance, housing counseling, sound lending, flexible underwriting that ensures the ability to pay, and backing by FHA’s mortgage insurance.
-
Efforts to make homeownership accessible to low-income and minority households ultimately depend on economic recovery, a healthy housing market, and increased protections for consumers, investors, and taxpayers.
Tangi Community Development not only specializes in affordable rental options, but we help families transition from renting to home ownership. Our homeownership initiative is designed for families at or below 80% AMI. We take pride in assisting families in understanding homeownership is an option through homebuyer workshops and HUD certified housing counseling. For more information on our homeownership initiatives please email affordablehomes@tangicdcnonprofit.org
