Kansas's statewide Housing Finance Agency down payment/closing cost assistance program: a 0%-interest forgivable second mortgage of 15% (household income 51-80% of area median income) or 20% (income at or below 50% AMI) of the purchase price, fully forgiven if the buyer remains in the home 10 years (prorated repayment owed if sold/refinanced sooner). Layered on top of a first mortgage from a participating private lender — KHRC does not originate the first mortgage itself. Not available within Johnson County or the city limits of Kansas City, Lawrence, Topeka, or Wichita, since those metro areas administer their own federally-funded homebuyer programs.
