Overview of ® DPA One

EXTERNAL

© Freddie Mac


Addressing a Challenge One of the most cited challenges for first-time homebuyers is securing down payment funds.

While down payment assistance (DPA) programs are available, it can be difficult for housing professionals to find the right program that meets the specific needs of a borrower.

INDUSTRY CHALLENGE

• Over 2,000 down payment assistance programs exist today but are under-utilized. • Programs are often difficult to navigate and appropriately match to borrowers. • Challenges can increase time to close and put borrowers at a disadvantage in a competitive market.

Making the Right Match For Down Payment Assistance About DPA One®

• Freddie Mac developed DPA One® as a free, online tool to host down payment assistance programs nationwide and ease the matching efforts within the business-to-business mortgage ecosystem.

• DPA One facilitates the partnerships between housing professionals and DPA program providers in reaching the shared goal of helping more borrowers get into homes.

Value Proposition Lenders / Loan Officers / Housing Counselors Allows housing professionals to quickly find, understand and match the best DPA programs to their clients by providing all the DPA program information they need in one place right when they need it most.

DPA Program Providers Can easily manage DPA programs in a standardized format so that information is efficiently delivered through one centralized mechanism, reducing submission errors and program requirement questions from housing professionals.
