The El Paso County, Colorado “Turnkey Plus” Mortgage Program provides a partially forgivable Down Payment Assistance (DPA) loan to individuals and families who want to purchase a home anywhere in El Paso County, including the City of Colorado Springs. Qualified homebuyers may receive 0%, 3%, 4% or 5% in DPA in the form of a soft Second Mortgage loan at 0% Interest, which is only due upon pay-off of the First Mortgage. The El Paso County Housing Authority, as Program Sponsor, rolled out the “Turnkey Plus” Mortgage Origination Program on February 15, 2019.
