I believe your lender has a duty to check and disclose home state buyer programs before offering you a loan. Fuck if I know what your recourse would be, but I believe dems da rulez

They bought before the grant program existed so the lender did nothing wrong in this instance. Just a case of bad timing.

Wow. How long as this existed? My lender only offered me their first-time homeowners program which meant I only had to put 5% down. This was 3 or 4 years ago
