Georgia offers homebuying assistance through various programs

The Georgia Department of Community Affairs offers several housing programs, including the Georgia Dream Homeownership Program. It offers down payment assistance and funding to Georgians seeking to buy their first home.

The program has expanded and is now offering two new initiatives to reach more homebuyers: the Georgia Dream Peach Plus Loan Program and the Georgia Dream Peach Select Veterans Assistance Loan Program.

On Tuesday’s edition of “Closer Look,” Commissioner Christopher Nunn and Deputy Commissioner for Homeownership Wesley Brooks talked with show host Rose Scott about the current homebuying housing market in Georgia and their initiatives aimed to help more Georgians purchase homes.
