Buying a home can be affordable thanks to a partnership between the El Paso Housing Finance Corporation and local home mortgage lenders. Homebuyers in the El Paso program area have a chance to own a home of their own with a down payment and/or closing cost assistance. Here are the details, but you should go directly to one of the participating lenders to apply. You do not have to come to City Hall to apply.
