Colorado Housing Finance Agency (CHFA) Home Loans

The Colorado Housing Finance Authority, also known as the CHFA, is a government agency dedicated to improving Colorado by investing in affordable Colorado housing and Colorado community development. The CHFA offers eligible Colorado residents a variety of financial resources to strengthen homeownership, affordable rental housing, and businesses.

One of the CHFA’s most popular resources is their low-interest rate mortgage programs. Designed for low-to-moderate-income borrowers in Colorado, these programs can provide both traditional home financing as well as down payment assistance/closing cost assistance.

Veritas Funding currently offers 10 different Colorado Housing Finance Agency Home Loan Programs, so it’s likely there’s a CHFA option that fits your needs. Read on to learn more about Colorado Housing CFHA Loans and understand how to qualify for a CHFA mortgage.
