Down Payment Assistance in Washington
What are the income limits for Washington State down payment assistance programs?
WSHFC income limits for down payment assistance in Washington vary by county and household size, but generally run between $145,000–$200,000 for most households in Western Washington counties. Eastern Washington counties have lower caps. The limits cover a significant portion of Washington's working population — many buyers assume they make too much without ever checking. City-specific programs have their own income caps that may be stricter or more generous than WSHFC. A five-minute check against your actual household income is worth doing before assuming you're out.
