Island Housing Offers New 35-year Mortgage
10/30/02 -
The state housing agency's new "Buy More" program expands
the borrowing power of home buyers. Because "Buy More"
stretches their payments over 35 years, buyers can borrow more money
than with a conventional 30-year loan. They can use the increased
purchasing power to buy a bigger house, a house in better condition
or a house in a more convenient location. Borrowers must be first-time
home buyers earning no more than $62,500. The interest rate is just
5.25 percent. For more information, contact the Rhode Island Housing
and Mortgage Finance Corporation at 457-1219 or cbarnett@rihousing.com.
