Here’s help for a down payment

The city is launching its Down Payment Assistance Program, which provides low- to moderate-income residents with a 20-year forgivable loan equal to 10 per cent of a home’s purchase price. Applications are available May 3 on a first-come, first-served basis. For information, call 905-546-2424 ext. 1554 or visit hamilton.ca/downpaymentassistance.
