FHLB Down Payment Assistance Program

If you are receiving down payment assistance funds from a lender using Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) funds, you are likely required to receive both online education and  one-on-one counseling to participate in the FHLB program.

Online Homebuyer Education Course

The online Homebuyer Education Course is provided by eHome America, and the cost is $115.00, which you will pay when you register for the class. Click on the button below to begin.

Monthly Budget Sheet

You must also complete a monthly budget sheet so you can keep track of  your spending habits. We will review this item with you during the counseling session. Please see that sheet below, which also includes an instruction sheet for assistance.

One-on-One Counseling

After all of the above items are finished, you will need to make the payment for the one-on-one counseling session. This session is provided by The Housing Partnership staff and is available via Zoom or over the phone. The cost for this counseling is $115.00.

These payments can count towards the amount you must contribute per FHLB requirements to receive their funds. Once you have sent us your  documents and completed payments for the online education and one-on-one counseling, we will contact you to schedule the counseling session.
