ONE+Boston will offer the lowest fixed interest rates available for a 30-year mortgage. It will also provides access to downpayment and closing-cost assistance. We want to increase the buying power of income-eligible, first-time Boston homebuyers purchasing a home within the City. Our goal is to help fulfill the City's pledge to create 1,000 new homeowners by the end of 2023.
