Buy a home at a below market rate price

First time homebuyers can buy a home in San Francisco at below market rate (BMR) prices.

Ano ang dapat malaman

Income

You need to make under a certain amount for your household size. The highest limit for a one-person household is $151,300 a year.

Restricted sales price

When you sell this home, we will set the sales price and assign a buyer through a lottery. 

Ano ang gagawin

1. Decide if you want to apply

You will need some money saved up for downpayment and closing costs. Generally, downpayment is 3% of the sales price. Closing costs can be 2 to 3% of the sales price.

Before you can apply, you must do homebuyer education and get a mortgage loan preapproval letter from an approved lender.

2. Apply for listings

Each listing has a deadline. Check income requirements for each listing.

3. See lottery results on your listing

Each listing contains a lottery date. We post results to the listing no later than 1 week after the lottery.

If your lottery number is in the top results, you will need to send in more paperwork.
