June is National Homeownership Month, and we want to take this opportunity to educate Texas home buyers about TSAHC’s Home Sweet Texas Home Loan Program. This program provides eligible low and moderate-income home buyers with a fixed rate mortgage loan and a grant of up to 5% of the loan amount for down payment assistance.
Want to learn more? We’ve provided answers below to some of our most frequently asked questions.
To celebrate June as homeownership month, TSAHC is going to focus our blog posts this month specifically on promoting the benefits of our Home Sweet Texas program. We’ll also provide resources for newlyweds, renters and millennials who may be interested in using TSAHC’s Home Sweet Texas program to purchase a home of their own. Stay tuned!

I’m a First Time Home Buyer, and was inserted in Down Payment Assistant Programs.
Hi Kellie, Yes, a city/county second lien DPA can be used in addition to the DPA assistance from TSAHC, however it can only be combined with TSAHC’s assistance if it does not require a specific first lien mortgage loan. TSAHC’s assistance requires the use of TSAHC’s first lien mortgage.
Can the borrower do a City/County Second lien DPA in addition to TSAHC ?
