Fairway has affordable housing options available that may be able to help you with your home financing. If you are having trouble saving for a down payment or are interested in exploring what programs you may qualify for, we can help!

Homeward Edge

We know that saving for a down payment is often the biggest challenge when buying a home. That’s where Homeward Edge comes in. This unique financing program is designed to give qualified buyers a head start by providing a grant that covers up to 2% of the down payment, so buyers bring 1% of the purchase price to the closing table.

Program Highlights

• Fairway contributes the lesser of 2% of the purchase price or $4,500 toward the down payment
• This is a true grant (no repayment required).
• Can be combined with the HomeReady VLIP $2,500 Credit (borrower income ≤ 50% AMI).
• Cannot be combined with any other Fairway incentive programs.
• The borrower must contribute at least 1% of the down payment (plus any remaining down payment needed to meet the minimum required borrower contribution).
