Mortgage Loans for First-Time Homebuyers

Direct Financial is committed to providing first-time homebuyers in Greater Metro Detroit area with reasonable and fair mortgage options. We understand that the upfront and ongoing costs of homeownership can seem overwhelming when buying a first home. However, we have several home mortgage options for first-time buyers as well as government-sponsored loans.

No longer is the standard rule of thumb that a 20% down payment is required on a home loan. Depending on your circumstances, you may qualify for a mortgage with as little as three percent down or even zero down under certain first-time buyer programs.

A great option for first-time home buyers is Direct Financial’s H.O.M.E. Program that allows buyers to choose an adjustable-rate mortgage that is priced under our fixed rates with flexible underwriting guidelines and reduced-price insurance.
