1% Down Mortgage From a Florida Mortgage Broker

A 1% down mortgage lets you contribute just one percent of the price while the lender adds a grant — usually another 2% — so you start with 3% equity without saving 3%. It is one of the few legitimate paths to a near-zero down conventional loan in Florida.

On a $400,000 Florida home, 1% down is $4,000 out of pocket. The lender grant covers the gap to the program minimum, and you finance the rest. That keeps cash in your account for moving costs, repairs, and reserves rather than draining it at the closing table.

These programs run through specific conventional investors and have income limits in many areas, so they are not available on every loan. As a broker we know which lenders offer a true 1% down product right now and whether you fit the box before you write an offer.

1% Down at a Glance

✓Pay 1% of the price; the lender grant supplies the rest of the minimum equity.

✓Keeps thousands in the bank for reserves and move-in costs.

✓Runs on conventional financing with cancellable PMI, not a permanent fee.

✓Income limits apply in most areas — we confirm eligibility up front.

FAQ

1% Down Questions

Is a 1% down mortgage real?

Yes. Several conventional lenders offer a 1% down program where you pay 1% and the lender contributes a grant (commonly 2%) to reach the 3% minimum equity. It is a real product, not a teaser, but it has income limits and is not offered by every lender. We match you to one that has it.

Do I keep the lender grant if I sell?

In most 1% down programs the grant is a true gift, not a second loan, so there is nothing to repay when you sell or refinance. Terms vary by lender, so we confirm the grant structure in writing before you commit.
