In Atlanta, the journey to homeownership has become increasingly daunting, particularly for first-time buyers, including many Black residents. Neighborhoods that were once affordable have evolved into highly sought-after markets. With escalating rents, limited inventory, and rising home prices, obstacles such as scarcity of savings, higher interest rates, and fierce competition loom large.To combat these challenges, Atlanta Housing offers a Down Payment Assistance (DPA) program, providing up to $25,000 for eligible buyers. Since 2005, over $35 million has been allocated to assist more than 2,100 first-time homeowners, fostering wealth creation and housing security. The DPA program is designed to alleviate upfront costs, covering down payments and closing expenses, often through forgivable loans.Brion, a Georgia native who recently achieved homeownership with DPA support, exemplifies how targeted assistance can pave the way to stability and prosperity, empowering individuals to invest in their futures and community.
