Low Down Payment

The following are among the down payment loan programs being offered today. They range from Conventional, FHA, VA loan programs. As a general rule, the down payment funds must be sourced.

The lender will want to know where it came from. If the source of funds cannot be proven through acceptable documentation such as a check draft, wire transfer, bank transfer, employment, your loan application may be denied.
