NMLS #1132235 · PrimeLending

Down payment assistance (DPA) programs — when available — are designed to help eligible buyers cover part of upfront costs so they can purchase sooner. Program names, income limits, property rules, and layering with FHA/conventional/VA pathways change over time and by location.

This page does not list specific program amounts or guarantee eligibility. Lori can help Ocala and Marion County buyers understand which questions to ask and how assistance conversations typically fit alongside first-time buyer and preapproval planning.

Frequently asked questions

Is down payment assistance only for first-time buyers?

Many programs focus on first-time or first-generation buyers, but definitions and rules vary. Confirm eligibility for your household and property rather than assuming from a headline.

Can assistance be combined with FHA or conventional loans?

Sometimes — layering depends on the assistance source and the loan pathway. Lori can help you list the right questions before you count on a specific combination.
