Your Window to Homeownership

The federally funded Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) enables eligible applicants to realize homeownership in Phoenix by providing monetary incentives to assist with down payment, closing costs and home improvement. For information on the NSP program funding, goals and outcomes to date, please read the NSP Fact Sheet.
The three NSP assistance programs are:
- Move-In Ready (purchase homes that have been newly renovated by program partners, in established Phoenix neighborhoods) View Move-In Ready Program Available Inventory
- Home Improvement Program (purchasing foreclosed homes needing repair in specific Phoenix ZIP codes)
Limited-time Special Incentive: Energy Star Plus Kitchen Appliance Replacement Package - Homeownership Assistance (purchasing foreclosed homes anywhere within the city of Phoenix limits)
An Energy Star Plus washer and dryer are included when you purchase a home (Move-In Ready or Home Improvement Program) located within the Special Interest Areas (refer to program maps); plus agents receive a 1% bonus on Move-In Ready homes in these areas.
Each of the NSP programs provides the following:
- a home warranty policy
- friendly guidance throughout the process
- assurance that the buyer is ready for successful homeownership
Phoenix has a large inventory of eligible, foreclosed properties to choose from, offering close proximity to amenities, jobs and public transportation, while living in established neighborhoods.
You may be eligible for one of these helpful NSP programs, if you:
- Do not currently own any real estate
- Will occupy the home as your primary residence
- Earn within the program’s income requirements, which are less restricted than you may think. For example, a household of four can make $79,700 and still qualify for the program.
Achieve your dream of homeownership by pursuing one of the three NSP programs without delay. Given the current affordability of resale homes in Phoenix, the time to buy is now!
