Imagine unlocking the door to your very first home, the pride swelling within you, knowing you've navigated the financial maze to make it happen. That's the journey I, Christopher Lynch and Brianna Lehmann guide you through in our latest episode. We delve into the plethora of down payment assistance options that can transform the dream of homeownership into a reality, especially for first-time buyers. From the allure of minimal down payments on conventional loans to the particularities of USDA loans taking into account the income of the entire household, we ensure you're equipped with knowledge to pick the path that suits you best.

Step by step, we walk you through home buying programs you might not know about in the Canton and Massillon areas, where your income could be the golden ticket to additional support. But it's not all about the funds—your personal finances need to be in check too. We discuss the importance of having a safety net and planning for those pesky additional expenses that come with buying a home. Whether it's missing appliances or future repairs, we prepare you for the full picture of homeownership costs, beyond just the mortgage.
