What is the Saxton Low Cash To Close Loan?

Government-backed financing that does not require money down

The Saxton Low Cash To Close Loan covers the two routes that ask the least of a buyer’s savings: veteran financing for those who have served, and rural housing financing for eligible properties and incomes.

Both routes are built for buyers who have not saved much. Veteran financing generally starts around a 660 credit score. Rural housing financing depends on the property being in an eligible area and on household income limits set for that area.

Use it to purchase a primary residence or refinance the one you own, on single-family homes, planned unit developments, townhomes, and eligible condominiums.
