Homeowner & Home Buyer Programs

Home Buyers Assistance


The waiting list for the Homebuyer Assistance Loan Program is currently closed. This is a gap loan program to assist persons who have not owned homes in the past. Read the Information Sheet to see the details of the program. Each person will be served when they come to the top of the list.  Be aware you must be low income (see below), but also given the house prices in Humboldt County, you must earn enough income to qualify for a first loan.
