Homebuyer Mortgages are available to first time homebuyers with low or moderate incomes who are buying moderately priced homeswithin CHFA sales price limits or persons who have not had anownership interest in a home for the previous 3 years. Prior homeowners may qualify for a mortgage if the home they purchase is within atargeted area. Household income limits, which vary by town, applyto all borrowers with one exception: In targeted areas, over incomelimit households may still apply for CHFA financing without regard to the income limits.

Eligible condominiums and qualified mobile homes may also be financed. Maximum sales limits have been established for each county, withexceptions for some individual towns.
