Homebuyer Assistance Programs Available to City of Arlington Residents

Financial Assistance for Property Owners During COVID-19 Crisis

If you are unable to make mortgage payments due to COVID-19 crisis, help is available.

Assistance for FHA Mortgages

Read the Mortgagee Letter 2020-06(PDF, 174KB) which provides information about FHA’s Loss Mitigation Options for Single Family Borrowers Affected by the Presidentially-Declared COVID-19 National Emergency in Accordance with the CARES Act

Assistance for FHA, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, VA, USDA, and Some Private Owned Mortgages

Apply for assistance with your mortgage servicer, preferably through their website as a phone call might take longer. A confirmation of the forbearance should be provided at the time of application.

This assistance applies not only to the property you are living in, but also to rental properties you might own – even if you are delinquent prior to the release of the CARES Act.

If you have questions about this process, you can contact The Housing Channel at 817-924-5091 or www.housingchannel.org.
