For a limited time, MassHousing is expanding its homebuyer assistance program to
help increase the buying power and lower the upfront costs of homeownership for more
Massachusetts residents.
Homebuyer assistance is a 0% interest, deferred repayment loan of $30,000 or
$25,000, depending on income. There are no monthly payments for the homebuyer
assistance loan, which is due upon sale, payoff or refinance of the home.
