Conflicting official information

  • The page states a 4% calculation but also a maximum based on the minimum down payment, usually 3%–3.5%; the current amount needs clarification from CHFA.

Do not rely on the disputed condition until the provider clarifies it.

Not confirmed or subject to limits

  • This is a repayable loan; confirm the amount, rate and terms with the lender.
  • A current deadline was not confirmed; check with the organization before applying.
