Close on Your Tempe Home
Receive HOME Plus assistance at closing, sized as a percentage of your first-mortgage amount (up to 4%), so the exact figure is set once your loan amount is. On the forgivable option there is no monthly payment, and the second lien is forgiven in full after 60 months; sell or refinance before then and it is repaid. A non-forgivable option is also available.
