Apply For A NIFA Loan
Think you’re ready to apply for a NIFA loan? Walk through these five steps to make sure you have everything you need!
1. Make sure you’re eligible
Check your eligibility and get your NIFA Homebuyer Certificate! NIFA will use the certificate for pre-eligibility with our loan program. This is not an application or approval for a loan.

2. Find A Participating Lender
Now, it’s time to take that NIFA Homebuyer Certificate to a Participating Lender to get pre-approved for a loan. Your loan officer will review your credit report, household income sources and expenses to help you determine the price of a home you can afford.
