OHFA Releases New Down Payment Assistance Program In August, the Ohio Housing Finance Agency released its new down payment assistance program, OHFA Advantage. The program aims to help more Ohioans achieve homeownership with additional down payment funds. OHFA Advantage provides a 2% down payment assistance grant to homebuyers whose income falls within 50 percent of the area median income and 0.5% down payment assistance grant to homebuyers whose income falls with 80 percent of the area median income. This is in addition to OHFA’s Your Choice! 2.5% or 5% Down Payment Assistance. For example, if a homebuyer qualified for OHFA Advantage and was purchasing a $100,000 home, they could receive a total of $7,000 in down payment assistance. OHFA Advantage can only be used with conventional loans.

OHFA Expands FHA 203(k) Home Rehabilitation Loan OHFA previously offered the Limited FHA 203(k), which limited repairs to $35,000 for those purchasing homes. In September, OHFA expanded to the Full 203(k), which allows a homebuyer to perform more substantial repairs to a home and removes the $35,000 limit. The strong housing market has produced limited availability of homes to purchase. By offering the Full 203(k), OHFA hopes to provide additional housing options for those who would like to purchase and rehabilitate a home.
