$20,000 Welcome Home Grant Available At DFCU

Dynamic Federal Credit Union is proud to participate in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati's Welcome Home Program, offering grants of up to $20,000 to assist eligible homebuyers with down payments and closing costs.


Why Choose Dynamic FCU For Your Welcome Home Grant?

Unlike some financial institutions that may offer only partial grant amounts, Dynamic FCU is committed to providing our members with the full advantage of the $20,000 grant, ensuring you receive the maximum benefit available.


When Does The Program Open?

Grant applications can be submitted starting March 3rd, 2025. Grants are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, so early application is highly encouraged. Potential applicants may begin speaking with a Dynamic FCU Loan Officer today. We will coordinate your Welcome Home Application ensuring you meet the programs requirements and deadlines.


Who Are Eligible Homebuyers?

A homebuyer would be eligible for the Welcome Home Grant if all of the following guidelines are met:


  • The total income for all occupants who will reside in the home is at or below 80 percent of the Mortgage Revenue Bond (MRB) limit for the county and state where the property is located. See chart for income limits for counties in the Dynamic FCU area.
  • A fully executed (signed by buyer and seller) purchase contract on an eligible property is in hand
  • The homebuyer has at least $500 of their own funds to contribute towards down payment and/or closing costs
  • If a first-time homebuyer (typically anyone who has not owned a home in the last three years), a satisfactory homebuyer counseling course is completed prior to the loan closing. Note: Applicants do not have to be first-time homebuyers.
