Firefighters Home Loan Questions
Do firefighters qualify for Hometown Heroes in Florida?
Yes. Firefighters are an eligible Hometown Heroes group, with up to $35,000 toward down payment and closing costs as a 0% deferred second. You will need to meet the county income limit and complete a homebuyer course. We verify it for your situation.
How is firefighter overtime counted for a mortgage?
With a two-year history, lenders average your overtime and add it to base pay as qualifying income. Given how much overtime many firefighters work, this often makes a real difference in buying power. We document the pattern so it counts.
