Mortgage Pre-Approval Required
Deerfield Beach Housing Authority will not be able to accept an application without a pre-approval letter from a
qualified lender. The lender will require you to complete a loan application and will review your credit, income and
other standard loan information to determine if you qualify for a mortgage and how much you are able to afford. Interest
rates, loan amounts and terms of any loan are subject to negotiation between lender and borrower. Throughout the
process, the lender who pre-approved you may request additional information from you to complete the loan application.
You must be determined to be both income eligible for the purchase assistance program and able to secure a loan to
receive assistance from the City.
Income Certification Process
The DBHA will verify all household income information. The verification is required to determine your eligibility for
assistance under HUD and SHIP program guidelines. If you qualify for assistance, your income will be certified
and you will receive a notice of eligibility. Should your income change after you were determined income eligible and
assistance has not yet been provided, your program eligibility will have to be recertified.
Finding an Eligible Property
All properties must have an appraisal that is no older than 60 days, a roof inspection, termite inspection and other
inspections that may be determined under the program. Once your contract to purchase has been accepted, you will
need to work with your lender to finalize your mortgage process.
DBHA reviews all final loan packages and inspection reports to determine program eligibility. All loan
documentation, sales contracts and property inspections will be forwarded to DBHA by your lender. Once you have
received a mortgage commitment from your lender, you must be sure that DBHA receives a copy of your HUD 1
closing statement at least 3 days prior to closing to enable final compliance review with HUD/ SHIP program rules.
Deerfield Beach Housing Authority and the City of Deerfield Beach are not acting in any capacity relating to
mortgage or real estate transaction. You agree to hold harmless Deerfield Beach Housing Authority and the
City of Deerfield Beach, any governmental agency, its officers, employees, stockholders, agents, successors
and assigns from any and all liability that may arise due to you applying for any grant or mortgage or your
purchase of any real estate. Applicants should always seek competent, professional legal advice when engaging
