Through the partnership, ARMLS subscribers gain access to Down Payment Connect, DPR\u2019s tool that integrates its database of more than 2,700 down payment assistance (DPA) programs directly into listing data. Eligible listings are flagged with a special icon, making DPA-eligible properties easy for agents and potential buyers to identify.<\/p>\n

According to DPR data, DPA can lower an applicant\u2019s loan-to-value ratio by an average of 8.8%, helping lenders qualify more mortgage-ready borrowers and agents deliver better outcomes for homebuyers.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery one of ARMLS\u2019 subscribers now has a direct line to the down payment assistance programs their clients need to get into a home,\u201d said Rob Chrane, founder and CEO of Down Payment Resource. \u201cArizona has substantial DPA resources available, and pairing that with ARMLS\u2019 reach means far more buyers will actually find out these programs exist and make use of them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Down Payment Connect provides ARMLS subscribers with a personalized landing page they can share on their websites and social media and in their email signatures to connect prospective buyers with available assistance. In Arizona, DPA is offered through 34 agencies and 61 programs, with an average assistance amount of $28,000. Programs are available to buyers earning up to $155,000 a year who are purchasing homes priced up to $484,350.<\/p>\n
