Is GA Dream right for you?

If you’re a first-time homebuyer or interested in buying a home located in the state of Georgia, you may qualify for the Georgia Dream program. Borrowers are eligible if they are either:

  • A first-time homebuyer
  • A homebuyer who has not had interest or ownership in a primary residence in the last three years, or
  • A homebuyer who is purchasing a home in one of the program’s designated “target areas”

If you meet one of the above benchmarks, you may qualify for the Georgia Dream program if you also meet the minimum credit score, household income limits and liquid asset requirements as described above.
