Respondents in the latest National Association of REALTORS Profile of Buyers and Sellers said that saving for the down payment was the most difficult step in the home buying process. Data also shows that buyers aren’t overwhelmed by more information—they are consuming and using it to help move their home search forward. Many buyers are unaware of or have no access to information about homeownership programs that could make their home purchase more affordable. As a NorthstarMLS subscriber, you have access to Down Payment Resource, a core service that helps you help your clients identify these programs.

This video shows how to begin the process of checking your client’s down payment program eligibility and how to search through local programs that may be available to your clients. Give it a view, it’s just over two minutes long!
