Own a Home with Less Out-of-Pocket—and More Peace of Mind
In partnership with Intend Indiana’s EdgeFund, we’re combining two powerful mortgage solutions—HomePower and Hoosier Homes—to give first-time and repeat buyers in Kosciusko County a stronger path to affordable, long-term homeownership.
What is the HomePower + Hoosier Homes Combo?
Together, these two programs create a layered mortgage solution that maximizes affordability:
HomePower Mortgage:
✓ Covers 20–30% of the purchase price through a 2nd mortgage ✓ 2% fixed interest with interest-only payments for 30 years ✓ No down payment, no closing costs, and no PMI (with qualifying terms)
Hoosier Homes Down Payment Assistance:
✓ Offers an additional 5% in down payment assistance ✓ Works alongside your 1st mortgage to reduce upfront and monthly costs
1st Mortgage:
✓ A 30-year fixed-rate conventional mortgage ✓ Can be paired with both assistance programs above

To qualify for this combined solution, buyers must meet the most restrictive requirements of both programs:
