Enjoy Flexible Financing with CMG Loans and Berks Homes

Are you planning to buy a new home in Pennsylvania but feeling overwhelmed by financing? Berks Homes is proud to partner with CMG Home Loans, a preferred lender with truly innovative solutions. They aim to help buyers navigate changing interest rates and make the best possible investment.  

 Top CMG financing programs to consider 

Rate Rebound  

Mortgage rates may fluctuate, but that doesn’t mean you have to wait to buy or build a home. With CMG’s Rate Rebound program, buyers can lock in the financing they need today, with the opportunity to refinance within five years with no lender fees if market conditions improve. 

 This program makes homeownership a solid investment, regardless of the economy. It also applies to various loan options, including conventional, FHA, VA, and jumbo loans.  

 

PHFA K-FIT  

CMG is a partner of the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency (PHFA), and the two entities work tirelessly to make homeownership more accessible. The Keystone Forgivable in Ten Years (K-FIT) program offers up to 5% of the purchase price in down payment assistance, which is forgiven over 10 years. First-time buyers or those with limited upfront funds should absolutely take advantage of this option.
