Marketing Material – Homeownership and Movin' Up
Promote the Fund’s Homeownership and Movin’ Up mortgage programs, designed to make affordable homeownership a reality for low- to moderate-income buyers.
Your buyers may qualify for up to $12,000 in down payment assistance through our Low Down Home Loan. This program breaks down a common barrier to affordable homeownership.
We created these guidebooks to empower your buyers with knowledge about the home buying process, from deciding to buy a home to loan closing and beyond.
The Fund partners with more than 60 banks, credit unions, and independent mortgage companies throughout the state to offer our loans. That means your buyers can work with knowledgeable lenders in their own communities.
Our Top Producing Lenders are recognized every six months for leading loan production. These experienced partners can help your buyers close deals efficiently and navigate WVHDF financing with confidence.

We know as agents, you must be familiar with a variety of mortgage program options to fit your unique buyers’ needs. We’ll address some of the commonly asked questions about our agency and lending programs below.
Is the West Virginia Housing Development Fund a bank?
No. The West Virginia Housing Development Fund is the state’s housing finance agency. The money we lend comes to us primarily from the sale of tax-exempt mortgage bonds or when a customer pays off their loans. Please read through our Act, located in the About section, for more information on our operations.
Do my borrowers contact you directly for a loan?
They can. We have three in-house loan originators who can take and process loan applications. However, we encourage borrowers to work with one of our partner lenders. View our lender database to find a lender in your area
Do you only work with first-time or low-income buyers?
No. Our Homeownership Program primarily targets lower-income, first-time buyers, but our Movin’ Up Program is a great option for those who earn a moderate income or are repeat buyers. Visit the Movin’ Up Program page for updated income and sales price limits and other important information.
