$30,000 for Anne Arundel County

Here is information to an additional program that became available!!!!

Arundel Community Development Services, Inc (ACDS) is currently offering down payment assistance in Anne Arundel County Maryland. The Mortgage Assistance Program (MAP) is designed for first time homebuyers needing assistance with down payments, closing costs, and reducing first mortgage amounts. Depending on your need, this program can provide up to $30,000 in assistance.
The funds are provided as a loan; however, no payments are required and the funds are loaned at zero percent interest. MAP loan amounts must be repaid when you sell your home, transfer the title, or in 30 years, whichever occurs first. Under certain circumstances you may be required to repay the MAP loan if you refinance your first mortgage. The dollar amount of the MAP loan is determined by ACDS staff in conjunction with your mortgage company. A lien for the amount of the loan will be placed on the property through a Deed of Trust.
Am I eligible for MAP funds?
To be eligible for the Mortgage Assistance Program, you must:

1. (1) be a first time homebuyer, which means you have not owned an interest in real property during the last three years,
2. (2) be a graduate of the ACDS Homeownership Counseling Program, and
