First-time homebuyer is defined by SONYMA as not owning your primary residence during the past three years. First-time homebuyer requirement is waived for eligible military veterans and may be waived for applicants who purchase a home in a Federally designated Target Area. Income limits apply. Ask us for details.
Interest rates for first-time mortgages with a DPAL attached may be higher than mortgages without. Ask us for details.
All or a portion of the DPAL may be required to be repaid if borrower sells their home or refinances their mortgage within the first 10 years of purchase. The amount subject to possible repayment will decrease by 1/120 per month, each month borrower resides in the property secured by the loan and DPAL.
SONYMA loans are not eligible for additional KeyBank mortgage interest rate discounts.
