Philadelphia NeighborhoodLIFT Down Payment Assistance will be available beginning October 11, 2021 9:00 a.m.
South Kensington Community Partners
NeighborhoodLIFT is a down payment assistance program that provides a $15,000 grant for down payment and closing costs to eligible homebuyers in Philadelphia. The grant is structured as a ‘soft second’ mortgage loan that is conditionally forgivable over the five-year term of the LIFT loan.
LIFT is funded through a national partnership between Wells Fargo Foundation and NeighborWorks America. NHS Greater Berks will administer the LIFT program in Philadelphia in partnership with New Kensington Community Development Corporation and HACE.
The program officially opens October 11, but now is a great time to make an appointment and line up the things you will need to qualify. Visit nkcdc.org/NeighborhoodLIFT or contact Amanda Garayua at agarayua@hace.org or call 215-426-8025 x 3008 for more information.
