I just found out about the 2010 PALMETTO HERO PROGRAM, which targets assistance to the following groups in South Carolina:
- TEACHERS
- POLICE OFFICERS
- CORRECTIONAL OFFICERS
- FIRE FIGHTERS AND EMS
If you fall into any of these categories, and you live in South Carolina, you probably will qualify. you must have a valid sales contract to register a loan, and you can begin as of TODAY, 3/4/10.
More info: (DPA = Down payment assistance.)
