Neighborhood Stabilization Assistance (NSA)

NSA was designed to help market the sale of homes assisted with the federal Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) by helping homebuyers at or below 80% of area median income (AMI) with down payment and closing costs and improve their eligibility for first mortgage financing. For every $1 of NSP assistance, FHLBI can provide up to $3 in grant assistance through members, based on need, up to $10,000 per household.

Members may work with homebuyers purchasing a NSP-assisted home directly or through one or more housing organizations.
