▼ A fully executed (signed by buyer and seller) purchase contract on an eligible property is in hand;
▼ The homebuyer has at least $500 of their own funds to contribute towards down payment and/or closing costs; and,
▼ If a first-time homebuyer (typically anyone who has not owned a home in the last three years), a satisfactory homebuyer counseling course is completed prior to the loan closing.
