Maryland (MD) Down Payment Assistance Program

• The Maryland Mortgage Program features Down Payment Assistance (DPA), which is an additional loan available to anyone who is eligible for an MMP mortgage, and which helps borrowers put together a suitable down payment on their home. This loan, which can be up to $8,500 is a zero percent deferred loan, which means that you only ever pay back the principal (there’s no interest) after you complete all payments on the main MMP mortgage, or if you refinance, sell or otherwise vacate the home.
• Property Type - SFD/attached/townshouse/condo

Florida (FL) Mortgage Credit Certificate

• The Florida Housing Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) Program can help first time homebuyers save money each year that they live in their home. With the MCC Program the homeowner can claim up to 50 percent of their paid mortgage interest each year as a TAX CREDIT on their federal IRS tax return. The credit is capped at $2000 annually and any remaining mortgage interest not included as part of the TAX CREDIT is still eligible for the home mortgage interest deduction on their federal tax return. 
• Each year, a homeowner may claim a dollar-for-dollar reduction of income tax liability on 50 percent of the mortgage interest on their first mortgage, reducing the amount of federal taxes owed by as much as $2000.
