Loan Down Payment Assistance
Chattanooga Neighborhood Lending's Down Payment Assistance Program is designed to help homebuyers in Chattanooga and the surrounding areas cover closing costs and down payments included in the home buying process.
Our down payment assistance up to $25,000 will act as a second mortgage loan becoming payable on a monthly basis after the purchase date. It will begin amortizing in year one, at a rate of the first mortgage and would be paid off in a maximum of 15 years. There is no pre-payment penalty.
