Georgia Dream Homeownership Program

Often the biggest obstacle to homeownership is being able to afford the down payment. The Georgia Dream Homeownership Program can help make this happen for qualified borrowers.

The Georgia Dream program was created to make homeownership possible for eligible low and moderate income Georgians by providing affordable financing options, down payment assistance, and homebuyer education.

Potential home buyers apply with participating lenders for Georgia Dream loans.  The loans are secured or guaranteed by FHA, VA, USDA-RD or conventional uninsured loans.
