5 Things NC First Time Homebuyers Should Know
In February of 2014 – the newest part of the Government’s program to help people buy a house is in place! This is great news for folks interested in NC First Time Home Buyer Programs!
If you are ready to move out on your own, and Kiss Your Landlord Good-bye… CONGRATULATIONS!
We offer first time homebuyer programs from NC Housing Finance Agency. The NCHFA program allows you to purchase a home with little or no money out of pocket, can offer you a Tax Credit (in the form of MCC) and might allow you to purchase a home with a credit score of less than 640! (they accept a 600 credit score!)!

The First Time Home Buyer Program in NC
We talk to many First Time Home Buyers who are READY to get a new house, but just don’t know where to start.

Some communities are extremely strong for sellers, others not-so-much but, many are neutral.
Buyers are seriously shopping for those homes for sale this month as we are coming upon the typically hotter markets of the Spring in Raleigh Cary Home Sales. For many of the First Time Homebuyers we talk to – CASH is a common “barrier” keeping them from buying a home.
