Teacher Next Door
Program
The Teacher Next Door (TND) Initiative offers
HUD-acquired, single family homes to public school teachers with the following
significant benefits:
- 50 percent discount off appraised value.
- Only $100 Down Payment required*.
Under the Teacher Next Door program, HUD offers homes located in designated
revitalization areas. Revitalization areas are typically in low- and
moderate-income neighborhoods, have many vacant properties and often
have high crime rates, but are considered good candidates for economic
development and improvement.
Homes offered for sale in the program were previously insured through
the FHA and then foreclosed. HUD also reduces the downpayment requirement
to just $100 if the home is purchased with an FHA insured mortgage.
Following are the requirements that Teachers must meet to use the program:
- Teacher must live in the property as their sole residence for at
least three years after purchase.
- A "teacher" is
defined as an individual employed full time by a public school,
private school, or Federal, State, county, or municipal educational
agency as a State-certified classroom teacher or administrator
in grades K through 12.
In order to purchase an Teacher Next
Door Home you should be pre-approved and have a letter of commitment
for an approved loan.
Once your offer has been accepted, you
will have only 48hrs. to provide the required deposit and begin
your loan approval process. Get started before making your offer
to insure a smooth, stress free, transaction.
