You will need Adobe Reader to view PDF format documents. Download Reader for free. Most lenders will pre-qualify you before you purchase a home. Whether you are being pre-qualified or actually applying for a First-time Homebuyer Program loan, it is important to be prepared for the loan interview. The lender may require such things as a copy of the purchase agreement (if applicable), bank statements, paystubs, tax returns, and names and addresses of your creditors. The exact requirements may vary from lender to lender, and you may want to ask what documentation is needed when you call for an appointment.
On behalf of SDHDA, five Master Servicers (who are also Participating Lenders) will collect your mortgage payments and otherwise service the loans.
