Chapters

I just found out about this today and I know it sounds bogus but I've done the research. This is real. The DOJ is forcing these grants on Southern California to empower the people who can't afford homes in communities they would like to build up. In Orange county if you've got a 660 credit score you combined with you and your partner can make up to $383,000. Now if you're making that kind of money there might just be one thing holding you back from buying a house. Saving up for your down payment and closing costs. Well now you get $20,000 free and you can use part of it to buy down your interest rate. We've seen people do it where they get rates close to 6% and they still have money left over for down payment and closing costs. This is in la, San Diego, Orange County, Riverside, San Bernardino.
