A Wisconsin resource
WHEDA offers homeownership financing and down payment assistance options through approved lenders. Some programs serve first-time buyers; others may serve eligible repeat buyers.
Ask about repayment
Assistance is not automatically free money. Ask whether it is a loan, what repayment terms apply, and what happens when you sell or refinance. Confirm the total payment and cash needed for your purchase.
Verify the current program
Ask a WHEDA-approved lender to confirm current availability, income and purchase limits, education requirements, and which assistance options can be combined. Do not rely on a general guide as a funding commitment.
