Home Is Possible (Nevada)

5% DPA statewide

Up to 5% of loan amount for down payment and closing costs. Statewide, 30-year fixed.

Nevada Housing Division's Home Is Possible program provides up to 5% of the loan amount in DPA. Nevada's housing market — driven by Las Vegas, Reno, and Henderson — has seen dramatic price swings, and HIP helps stabilize homeownership for residents who might otherwise be priced out during upswings.

The program works with FHA, VA, and conventional first mortgages and is available to both first-time and repeat buyers (with income limits). For Las Vegas buyers, 5% DPA on a $400,000 home means $20,000 in assistance — enough to cover the full FHA down payment plus closing costs.
