The Hometown Heroes Program was created to support Florida’s workforce and first-time homebuyers. It helps cover the biggest barrier to homeownership, the upfront costs.
Here’s what you need to know:
• 💰 Assistance Amount: Up to 5% of the first mortgage amount, capped at $35,000 (minimum of $10,000).
• 🏡 Use of Funds: Down payment and closing costs.
• 💸 Repayment: 0% interest, deferred loan — only repaid when you sell, refinance, or move out.
• 📅 Launch Date: Funds become available August 18, 2025.
• 🔑 Eligibility: You must be pre-approved by a participating lender and under contract on a home to reserve your funding.

Why Act Now?
With only $50 million available statewide, these funds will move quickly. Buyers who start their search early and get pre-approved will have the best chance of securing assistance before funds run out.
If you’ve been waiting for the right time to buy, this program could save you tens of thousands of dollars, but timing is everything.
