Are you ready to buy your dream home but still missing enough savings for a down payment? We can help!
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:
- Harris County
Another essential requirement to obtain our Down Payment Assistance Program is that it requires our preferred real estate office from HoustonDesignHomes.com to negotiate the purchase and, thus, the contract of the chosen house. 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.
The following are some essential details about the Down Payment Assistance Program:
- First Time Homebuyer or lost a house during Harvey hurricane requirement.
- Non-Occupant Borrowers are OK.
- Property types can only be 1-4 Single Family Residence, Townhouse/Condo.

Great experience with this lender! Friendly and professional. They were always quick with responses to my questions and concerns. I would recommend them in a heartbeat. Everything went smoothly. Not only did they respond to all emails but constantly called me keeping me up to date. Thank you Joan.
Thanks Joan for you amazing work with our home loan. I still can’t believe I purchased a house for $174,000 and went to closing with $769 besides my $1000 earnest money deposit. I submitted an application online on 10/5/2016 after I read online about VA Programs Clear Lending offered. Next day Joan Gallardo called me and after his applications dept. completed an Pre-Approval, he told me from the start not to worry that he would be able to take care of me. And boy he did! He even negotiated on behalf of my agent with listing agent getting me a large seller contribution. This guy is very knowledgeable and I truly recommend him. Joan my wife and I cannot thank you enough all hard work you have done and no need to say I will refer you my friends. Actually I already sent you my boss. Take good care of Jorge! Thanks Joan.
Really happy we applied with Clear Lending. From application, to home search to closing it has been an exquisite experience. At every home showing, Joan explained us what to pay attention to and why it was important or not. We truly learnt a lot in our second home buying process. I recommend them very much.
