Through our partnership with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston (FHLB), eligible homebuyers may qualify for valuable homebuyer grant programs that provide additional funds toward down payment and closing costs.
 

Available FHLB Homebuyer Grants

GSB is approved to offer three FHLB grant programs designed to support income -eligible buyers purchasing a primary residence:
  • Equity Builder Grant
  • Housing Our Workforce Grant
  • Lift Up Homeownership Grant
These programs can significantly increase your buying power by reducing upfront costs, bringing you one step closer to owning a home.
 

How Homebuyer Grants Help

When combined with a mortgage, homebuyer grants can:
  • Lower the cash needed at closing
  • Help cover down payment and closing costs
  • Make homeownership more affordable and attainable
Grants are not loans and do not need to be repaid when program requirements are met.
 

Act Quickly—Funds Are Limited

FHLB grant funds are limited and distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Early conversations matter.
