How home-buying assistance works
Video clarification: TSAHC grant repayment may apply if the first mortgage is refinanced or paid off within six months. The three-year forgivable second lien has different repayment conditions. Ask an approved lender for current written terms, eligibility and a property-specific estimate; the recorded cash-to-close example is not a quote or promise.

Dollar amounts in the video are examples. Your cash needed to close depends on the home, loan, assistance option, and lender’s estimate.

A little context before we talk
The Texas State Affordable Housing Corporation (TSAHC) offers homebuyer programs that may help eligible buyers with a down payment and closing costs.
Assistance can have different terms, including grant or forgivable second-lien options. A participating lender can confirm current eligibility, available assistance, loan costs, and any repayment conditions.
