Florida Homebuyer Opportunity Program Fund Allocations Announced

The Florida Housing Finance Corporation (FHFC) has announced the amount allocated to local housing authorities for the 2009 - 2010 fiscal year under the Florida Homebuyer Opportunity Program (FLHOP). FLHOP will provide first-time homebuyers with funds for a down-payment using the current $8,000 federal tax credit. The FHFC will hold a rule development workshop in July to implement the FLHOP, meaning that the funds may not be distributed until sometime after July 1. Local county allocations are: (Clay) $350,000; (Duval) $806,179; (Putnam) $350,000; (St. Johns) $350,000.

  1. Any idea as to how we apply for the FLHOP money? I called a couple of the local housing offices (Jacksonville Housing Commission and the local SHIP office) and they both acted like they had no idea what I was talking about...
