Our guest is Orly Cohen, a mortgage loan officer with First Bank.  Orly explains the Welcome Home Program designed to assist low to moderate income households to achieve homeownership with up to a $20,000 grant for down payment and closing cost assistance. First-time homebuyers, and repeat homebuyers are both eligible.

The program can be really helpful if you are buying a home in Tennessee.  There is some urgency with the program, as the funds can be reserved beginning March 3, 2025 and there are limited funds available.

Orly can be contacted by call or text at (615) 243-3303 and at orly.cohen@firstbankonline.com.
