000abd6e-07eb-44c4-990b-9b1a604e23f7 Home How We Can Help Details Housing Choice Voucher About Housing Choice Voucher Program for Tenants The Housing Choice Voucher program (often referred to as Section 8) assists families and individuals to afford decent, safe, and sanitary housing in the private market. The participant is free to choose any housing that meets the requirements of the program, including single-family homes, townhouses, and apartments, and is not limited to units located in subsidized housing projects. Once the tenant and landlord sign a lease, the tenant's family typically contributes 30%-40% of their income towards rent and utilities, and the HCV program pays the remainder directly to the landlord. CDLI is the Local Administrator for the New York State Homes & Community Renewal (HCR) Housing Choice Voucher program for Nassau and Suffolk Counties, the Town of Hempstead, the Village of Sea Cliff, and select project-based voucher buildings in Brooklyn. For all programs, CDLI oversees tenant eligibility, lease-up, annual recertification, and Housing Quality Standards inspections of all units. CDLI is committed to knowledgeable customer service and program administration for all its tenants and landlords on behalf of all its partner organizations.

CDLI will help you to become mortgage-ready by educating you about the buying process, pitfalls to avoid, and available funding opportunities. CDLI can help make your dream become a reality. Buying a home can be challenging especially for a first-timer. Whether you are ready to buy a home right away, or whether you need additional preparation, the team at CDLI will help you through every step of the way! Learn more about our First Time Homebuyer program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJn6SvOJsKs Homebuyer Education Classes CDLI offers comprehensive Homebuyer Education (HBE) classes that fulfill the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) 8-hour requirement. These classes are led by HUD-Certified Housing Counselors and are designed to prepare first-time homebuyers with the knowledge and tools they need to navigate the homebuying process with confidence. What to Expect: Classes are offered both in-person and via Zoom The cost is $50 for the course Participants receive one-on-one counseling following the class A Certificate of Completion is provided, which is often required for down payment assistance or grant programs (e.g., SONYMA) Our classes include guidance from: A HUD-Certified Housing Counselor A loan officer A licensed real estate agent A real estate attorney Frequently Asked Questions Do I receive a certificate after the Orientation? The Orientation is an informational session regarding our services with the focus on Homebuyer Education. Although there isn’t any certificate provided to you upon completion of the Orientation, it gives you the opportunity to enroll in our Homebuyer Education Program. You will receive a Certificate of Homebuyer Education upon completion of the 8 hour class and one to one appointment with your Housing Educator. What is the "one to one" appointment? Upon completion of the homebuyer education class, you’ll schedule an appointment to meet with one of CDLI’s knowledgeable Housing Educators to discuss your individual housing goals. This is for your benefit! Ask lots of questions so the Housing Educator can assist you accordingly. During this appointment, the Housing Educator will review your income, assets, credit and budget. They’ll discuss various mortgage programs and grants that may apply to your current housing goals. The Housing Educator will provide you with guidance and resources to assist you as you navigate the homebuying process. At the end of the appointment, you will be provided a detailed action plan with your next steps, a summary of your budget and the homebuyer education certificate. The Housing Educator will follow up with you monthly to see how you’re progressing towards homeownership. How long is the homebuyer education certificate good for? Your homebuyer education certificate is good for one year after the date of your one to one appointment. Is there a fee for the Homebuyer Education? Yes. The class is offered in person or virtually and the fees vary depending on how you take the class. Our in person class is $50.00. We also offer our class via zoom and the fee is the same. There are also two options for you to take the class online. With the online options, you can complete the 8 hour class at your leisure. The online options are either $75.00 or $100.00. What is covered in the Homebuyer Education Class? The class covers what you need to know from the pre-approval to closing and everything in between. Renting vs. buying, budgeting, credit. You’ll learn about the role of a loan officer, realtor, home inspector, homeowner’s insurance agent, and closing attorney. Also covered is emergency preparedness and post closing resources. If you choose our in person class, we have professionals in the field discuss their role. How do grants work? Grants are based on household income, household size and availability. Homebuyer education is typically a pre-requisite just to apply. Most grants must be awarded to you prior to signing contract on a home. They typically cover various regions/areas of Long Island. For example, there may be a grant that covers Nassau County and one that covers Suffolk County. Keep in mind that you should be “homebuyer ready” prior to applying for a grant, meaning that you have a pre-approval. Remember, a grant may cover some of the down payment and closing costs so you’ll need a pre-approval to cover difference. Are grants just for down payment? In addition to grants for down payment, some cover home repairs/renovations. Do I have to repay any grants that I receive? Typically, grants have a “recapture clause", meaning that as you remain in the home, the grant is forgiven over time. For example, if a grant has a 10 year recapture clause, a portion of the grant is forgiven over time. If you sell the house or refinance the mortgage prior to the recapture clause expiring, you may have to pay back some or all of the grant funds received. How do I know which lender to choose for a pre-approval? During your one to one homebuyer education appointment, you will tell your Housing Educator what’s most important. For example, a low interest rate, down payment assistance, or even a lender who caters to borrowers with a lower credit score. Based on what you tell us and our assessment of your mortgage readiness, your Housing Educator will provide you with at least 3 referrals to lenders. You are under no obligation to use them. However, keep in mind that CDLI screens the services of mortgage lenders throughout the year to see who offers the most incentives for 1st time homebuyers. Those are the ones that we have on our list. I'm disabled. Can I purchase a home? Purchasing a home is based on your ability to pay. It’s not based on the source of your income, it’s based on the amount of your income. As long as your income is documented and consistent, in most cases, it can be used to qualify for a mortgage. We say in most cases because ultimately, you’ll have to meet with a mortgage loan officer who will submit your loan application to underwriting. How much money do I need in savings to purchase a home? Typically, you’ll need 3% of the purchase price for down payment and an additional 5% of the purchase price for closing costs. How much income do I need in savings to purchase a home? This depends on other factors, such as the purchase price, down payment, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance, etc. You should also take into consideration how much outstanding debt you owe. For example, if two borrowers have identical income and savings but one borrower has no debt and the other has a car payment, student loans and credit cards, the borrower with the debt will qualify for a lower mortgage amount.
