Legacy Banks Offers First-Time Homebuyer Assistance Loan09:27AM / Tuesday, August 11, 2009
PITTSFIELD, Mass. – Legacy Banks is offering a First-time Homebuyer Equity Builder Program for qualifying customers in need of financial assistance to purchase a home. The program, available as a result of Legacy Banks’ participation in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston Equity Builder Program, is available to first-time borrowers who have not had an ownership interest in a property for the past three years.
Among the many benefits of this program is that Legacy Banks provides up to 5% of the sales price for down payment assistance. Additionally, all bank-related fees are waived, including the application fee, underwriting fee and loan origination fee, and Legacy pays any third-party closing costs.
Legacy is offering its 5/1 Adjustable Rate Mortgage product through this program, the posted rate for which will be discounted by .25% APR for participants. Those enrolled in the program will not owe their first payment until 30-days after the closing, eliminating prepaid interest due at closing.
“There has never been a better time for first-time home buyers,” said Jackie McNinch, Vice President of Consumer Lending. “This, in addition to the new federal tax incentive and our very competitive first-time homebuyer loan programs, create the perfect opportunity for consumers to reach for the dream of homeownership,” she added.
Eligible properties include single-family, one to four family properties, town homes, duplexes, cooperatives and condominiums. The total household income must be at or below 80% of the area median income level, adjusted for family size, for interested applicants.
