First-Time Homebuyers

You have various down payment and home loan options.

Buying your first home is one of life’s biggest milestones. For many, it means, “I’m providing security and a foundation for my family.” As it may be one of the most significant, long-term investments you make, choosing a mortgage that fits your budget and lifestyle requires careful consideration.

 

 


Down Payment and Loan Options

Gathering your down payment can be a significant obstacle to home ownership. At Tech CU, qualified homebuyers may choose to make a minimal down payment, all while taking advantage of other money-saving options:

  • Variety of 95% financing programs*
  • No points/no cost loan options**
  • A wide variety of fixed and adjustable rate mortgage choices

  • Special assistance programs for first-time homebuyers available in many California counties. Check your county's website for details.
