Welcome Home Program
The Welcome Home Program offers grants of up to $15,000 for honorably discharged veterans, surviving spouses of military personnel, and active-duty military homebuyers and up to $10,000 for all other homebuyers to assist with down payment and closing costs for income eligible homebuyers. Homebuyers must apply and qualify for a mortgage loan with Class Act to utilize the grant. Please keep in mind, the grant money is limited and will be given out on a first-come, first-served basis.
Who are Eligible Homebuyers?
A homebuyer would be eligible for the Welcome Home grant if all of the following guidelines are met:

• A fully executed (signed by buyer and seller) purchase contract on an eligible property is in hand.
• The homebuyer has at least $500 of their own funds to contribute towards down payment and/or closing costs.
•If a first-time homebuyer, a satisfactory homebuyer counseling course is completed prior to the loan closing. Note: Applicants do not have to be first-time homebuyers.
What is an Eligible Property?
A property would be eligible if all of the following guidelines are met:
•The property will be the homebuyer’s primary residence.
•The property is a single family, townhome, condominium, duplex, multi-unit (up to four family units) or a qualified manufactured home.
•The property is subject to a legally enforceable five-year retention mechanism, included in the Deed or as a Declaration of Restrictive Covenants to the Deed, requiring the FHLB Cincinnati be given notice of any refinancing, sale, foreclosure, deed in-lieu of foreclosure, or change in ownership during the five-year retention period.
