Government Downpayment Assistance Program:   *NEW*
http://www.toledo.ohio.gov/Portals/0/departments/downpayment-assistance.pdf. It's not for everybody, but you may Be the right client for this assistance.  Apparently this can be used in conjunction with the tax credit program for first-timers, but be careful about timing.  With a government program involved it may be difficult to close prior to the expiration of the tax credit.  Also, be sure to note this has a 5-year recapture provision.  Contact me if you still need help finding out if you qualify for any of these Home Buying Assistant Programs.
