The First Time Home Buyer Down Payment Assistance Program (FTHB) is designed to promote home ownership for low income, first time homebuyers. Down payment assistance is in the form of a deferred loan (second mortgage), not due and payable until sale, transfer of property or 30 years, whichever happens first. Maximum assistance will be in the amount of $60,000. Contact the City of Roseville to inquire if there are funds available. We always accept applications to add interested buyers to our waiting list.

The Housing Rehabilitation program provides loans and grants for housing occupied by low-income families to correct home health and safety problems and help revitalize neighborhoods. Deferred payment loans (no monthly payment required) of up to $100,000 at 0% interest are available to qualified, owner occupied properties. Loans can also be used to make the home accessible to accommodate persons with disabilities. One time only grants of up to $5,000 are available to low-income elderly and/or disabled homeowners. These grants are used to correct health and safety defects and do not need to be repaid. Program funds are very limited.

Foothills Habitat for Humanity builds simple, safe, affordable ownership-housing for low income families by partnering with God's people from all walks of life. The vision of Foothills Habitat for Humanity is to eliminate substandard housing in Placer County. Please contact or visit the website for additional information.
