The Mortgage Center at St. Mary’s Bank participates in New Hampshire Housing’s Home Flex and Home Flex Plus Programs. These programs offer borrowers with low to moderate incomes affordable mortgage financing through low, fixed interest rates; low down payment requirements; and assistance grants to use toward down payment and closing costs. Most condominiums and 1–4-family homes qualify for these programs.
 
As a not-for-profit, member-owned credit union, St. Mary’s Bank also offers free First-time Homebuyer Seminars that prepare individuals for the transition to homeownership. The next seminar is Wednesday, April 12, 2017 at St. Mary’s Bank’s Education Center at 48 Perimeter Road in Manchester. To reserve your seat, register at www.stmarysbank.com/events.
