Your Dream Can Come True

We offer incentives to make your dream of owning a home in Atlanta become a reality.

  • Participants must contribute $1,500 of their own funds (items purchased outside of closing count toward this requirement).
  • Participants cannot own interest in any other property.
  • The property must be owner-occupied.
  • The property cannot be manufactured.
  • Existing properties must pass inspection prior to closing.
