LIFT Program: 20-Year Mortgages for Low-Income First-Time Homebuyers.

This bill establishes a new loan program designed to help low- and moderate-income families who are first-time, first-generation homebuyers achieve sustainable homeownership. The program offers 20-year mortgages with monthly payments structured to be comparable to those of a standard 30-year loan, allowing borrowers to build equity and wealth faster. Eligibility is primarily based on income limits and family history of homeownership.
Key points
Provides access to 20-year fixed-rate mortgages for eligible first-time, first-generation homebuyers, accelerating debt payoff.
Monthly payments are capped to be similar to standard 30-year mortgage payments, making the shorter term affordable.
Eligibility requires household income generally below 120% of the area median income (140% in high-cost areas).
The program includes outreach and counseling to increase awareness and participation among eligible stakeholders.
