As a leader in the effort to make quality, affordable housing accessible to all, Tarrant County Housing Partnership administers a number of programs that provide down payment, closing cost or principle reduction assistance for low and moderate income individuals and families.
Each program varies: in some instances, assistance is only available for specific properties, in other instances, assistance is open to homebuyers in specific communities. A brief overview of each program’s key components and eligibility requirements follows.
Important note: You must at least attend a TCHP Orientation Class in order to be considered for assistance. Attending TCHP’s other homeowner classes is strongly encouraged, and in some instances, may be required in order to receive your funding. Your counselor can provide additional information. View a class schedule.
