CDBG Funded Homebuyer Policies and Procedures 
Applicants must have eligible incomes below 80% of the Area Median Income and be willing to live in the home as their primary residence for 5 years. The forgivable loan will be forgiven in entirety at the end of 5 years.  The property must also pass a health and safety inspection. This does not replace a typical homebuyer inspection, which are encouraged.
