Town of Brookhaven Supervisor Ed Romaine, members of the Town Council, the Department of Housing and Community Development and the Long Island Housing Partnership have announced that the 2023 Town of Brookhaven’s Down Payment Assistance Program for First-Time Homebuyers will launch this month.
This program provides eligible first-time homebuyers with up to $39,000 in down payment/closing costs toward the purchase of an eligible, new or existing single-family home, provided that the applicant meets all program requirements to secure a mortgage.
Homeowners are required to reside in the home as their principle residence for a minimum of 10 years or the United States (US) Department of Housing and Urban Development will require a full repayment of the HOME Investment Partnership Program down payment assistance provided.
Funding for this program comes from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The application is now available online at BrookhavenNY.gov/DownPayment.
For more information, call the Long Island Housing Partnership at 631-435-4710 and ask about the Brookhaven Town HOME Down Payment Assistance Program.
