First Time Home Buyers Program
Watertown Savings Bank wants to support local residents looking to invest in their first home.
Take advantage of our great rate for first-time homebuyers. Receive a $550 discount on closing costs!
The advertised rate requires a:
- 20% down payment
- Credit score of 740 or higher
- Set up an auto-payment from a Watertown Savings Bank checking account.
If you have less than 20% to put down, add .50% to the rate, and if your credit score is below 740, add .250% to the rate. You'll still have a competitive rate! Plus, you will also receive a $550 discount on closing costs.
In addition, Watertown Savings Bank partners with Waltham Alliance for Teaching Community Organizing & Housing (WATCH CDC); Housing Corporation of Arlington; and Metro West Collaborative Development (Metro West CD) to educate first-time home buyers.
