Helping South Carolina Buyers Get Home

Saving enough for a down payment is often one of the biggest hurdles for first-time homebuyers. The SC Housing Homebuyer Program is designed to help clear that hurdle. With fixed interest rates, down payment and closing cost assistance, along with flexible loan options, this program gives eligible South Carolina buyers a real path to homeownership.

SC Housing Homebuyer Program Features & Benefits

  • Fixed Rate Loans: Your rate stays the same for the life of the loan, so your monthly payment is always predictable
  • Down Payment and Closing Cost Assistance: Extra funds may be available to help cover upfront costs, so you can keep more money in your pocket
  • Reduced Mortgage Insurance Premiums: You may qualify for lower mortgage insurance costs, which could mean a lower monthly payment
  • Flexible Loan Options: Choose from FHA, Conventional, USDA, and VA loan programs to find the best fit for you
