MSHDA MI 10K DPA

$10,000

Up to $10,000 statewide. 0% interest, no monthly payments, deferred until sale or refinance.

MSHDA's MI 10K DPA provides $10,000 for buyers in targeted ZIP codes — areas designated for community investment. In these targeted areas, the DPA is a 0% interest loan that's fully forgiven if you maintain residency.

Michigan's targeted areas include neighborhoods in Detroit, Grand Rapids, Lansing, Flint, and Saginaw. With median home prices in many of these areas under $150,000, $10,000 can cover 7% or more of the purchase price — significantly reducing or eliminating the cash needed at closing.
