Freddie Mac's Home Possible®
What Is the Home Possible® Program?
The Home Possible® program, offered through Freddie Mac, is designed to make homeownership more accessible for qualified borrowers, especially first-time buyers and those with low to moderate incomes.
A Low Down Payment Mortgage Solution
Grow opportunities with:
- A 3% down payment with flexible sources of funding
- Realize the milestone of homeownership faster without the barrier of a 20% down payment, having the freedom of flexible sources of funds, such as gifts and grants, and with no minimum borrower contribution required.
- Housing options from single-family homes, manufactured housing, energy-efficient properties and renovations to the ever-growing condominium market
- Leverage additional flexibilities that meet a range of life situations, such as ownership of another property, non-occupant borrowers and the ability to use rental income to qualify.
- Cancel mortgage insurance
- When eligible, reducing the monthly mortgage payment and potentially saving thousands over the life of the loan.
- Financial Literacy
- Enable empowered decisions and life-long responsible homeownership with financial literacy education for borrowers who are new to homeownership.
