HomeLIFT
To support sustainable homeownership and advance neighborhood stability, the HomeLIFTSM program looks to the future by delivering down payment assistance and financial education to homebuyers.2


1. This down payment assistance program is available for households earning 120% or less of the area’s median income, adjusted for household size, although specific loan products have lower income limits. HomeLIFT funds cannot be used to purchase bank-owned properties being managed by Wells Fargo Premier Asset Services.
2. The HomeLIFT program is a collaborative program of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., and NeighborWorks® America, an independent nonprofit organization.
Wells Fargo team members are not eligible to participate in the HomeLIFT Down Payment Assistance Program. This limitation also applies to a team member's immediate family, including spouses and dependent children, where the team member would have beneficial ownership of the property that was the subject of the DAP. Although Wells Fargo is the sponsor of the HomeLIFT program, you may seek financing for the remaining balance of the home purchase from any qualified lender who accepts the HomeLIFT down payment assistance program.
