So, you make the income, can afford the monthly payment, have saved some money, but need help with down payment and closing costs?

You are in the right place. Clear Lending can help you obtain Down Payment Assistance regardless of whether you are a First Time Home Buyer or not!

The Down Payment Assistance Program provides the maximum amount of up to $30,000. Funds can be used toward your down payment and reasonable closing costs. Under this program, you would be able to choose amongst a 30-year fixed-rate FHA, VA, USDA, and Conventional mortgage loan, whichever you can qualify. In case you wonder about the mortgage loan you would be getting, there is no pre-payment penalty or federal recapture tax for the mortgage loan.

Please note currently Clear Lending offers this program only in the following counties:

This process requires a non-refundable application fee of $590.00 to the real estate company.

Our preferred agents are experienced Texas Real Estate Commission Licensed Sales Agents knowledgeable about the entire process. From the home search process to complete purchase contract documents, inspection, and closing, our agents will guide you, giving peace of mind for a successful experience. Once you apply online will provide you with a detailed explanation about the process.

    I highly recommend Joan. I reached out to Clear Lending because I was not receiving information and good customer service from the first mortgage company I reached out to. Joan was extremely professional,informative and patient. He spoke to me for over 45 minutes and answered so many questions that I had as a first-time home buyer. I was looking for the Michael Jordan of mortgage brokers and Joan at Clear Lending is exactly that! He definitely cares and works very hard To help his clients in any way that he can.

    My wife and I had been trying to purchase a home for over two years and due to some other unforeseen issues we felt that that dream would never come true. I am grateful that we found Joan Gallardo with Clear Lending to make our dream come true. Joan was there every step of the way and two months after closing he is still there for us if we need anything or have any questions about our mortgage. Being first time buyers we were scared and nervous about the entire process but Joan made it as simple as possible and the whole experience was great. He gave us all the information we needed to make the home purchase that fit our needs and we could have not asked for a better mortgage lender. Our family is forever grateful for his hard and professionalism.

    FROM GOOGLE: AWESOME! AMAZING! EXPERIENCED! I can go on and on with adjectives to describe this guy! If you need a loan officer/realtor that you can trust, then Joan is the guy for you! I am a first time home buyer; I just got out of a complicated loan process and was very scared to go through another process of purchasing a home again until I met Joan. With Joan, buying a home was very simple and straight forward. He took his time to educate me about the loan process, and it allowed me to make informed decisions. I decided on the conventional loan, and he worked very hard to ensure that I got a loan with a meager interest rate. He kept me updated throughout and ensured that I understood everything. The entire process was super fast, and we closed the deal very early paying lower than I had expected for closing costs. I strongly recommend "Joan Gallardo of Clear lending" to anyone out there who is interested in buying a home. He saves you time, money, energy, and guides you through the process. You won't regret it!
