Before you apply:
The Homebuyer Assistance Program assists with closing the down payment gap on the home you have selected. The City of San Marcos does not refer applicants to realtors or lenders, and you must submit lending documents with the pre-approved address of the home you are to purchase.
If you need assistance with selecting a realtor, or improving your credit, The City of San Marcos and Austin Habitat for Humanity have come together to make buying a home easier for you. Habitat for Humanity provides free sessions on the fourth Saturday of the month that can help you prepare for homeownership before applying for our program. Simply click on the link below to get started and find out more about understanding your credit, getting a mortgage loan, money management and preparing for homeownership.

The City of San Marcos itself does not assist in credit improvement nor seeking a lender/ realtor. Attending a session is mandatory for approval of the application.
