Loudoun County’s Public Employee Homeownership Grant Program offers a grant of a secured loan to income-eligible employees of the Loudoun County Government and Loudoun County Public Schools. The program assists low-to moderate-income public employees in purchasing a home in Loudoun County.
Administered by the Loudoun County Department of Family Services, the program offers grants in the amounts of $5,000 for the purchase of a home located anywhere within the county; $15,000 for the purchase of a foreclosed, bank-owned property in the county; or $25,000 for the purchase of a property in Loudoun County’s Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) designated neighborhoods. More information on the NSP neighborhoods can be found at www.loudoun.gov/nsp.
Loans are forgivable at 20% of the loan amount annually over a five-year period, providing the employee does not leave employment, sell the home or no longer occupies the residence. If any of the above occurs, repayment of the remaining non-forgiven funds will become due and payable to the county either through repayment with proceeds of the sale or conversion to a repayable loan at 3% interest.
Standard eligibility requirements apply. Funds are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. Eligibility requirements for the program include:
• Must be a full or part-time (minimum 20 hours per week) non-probationary employee
• Shall not have been a resident of Loudoun County during the preceding 12 months. Note that first-time homebuyers are exempt from the residency requirement.
• Cannot own another home or real estate. Sale of currently owned property outside the county must be finalized prior to settlement on new property
• Must meet current eligible income range of $31,050 through $72,450, regardless of family size
For more information about the program and application procedure, contact Karen Thorson, Loan Specialist, at 571-258-3814 orkaren.thorson@loudoun.gov.

The essence of the bill, passed by both houses today, according to the National Association of Realtors, is that first time home buyers will have until April 30th of 2009 to find their first home, and that those potential move up buyers can join the tax savings too.
Among the changes are increases to income levels, and a generous cap of $800,000 on purchase cost.
