You can't apply for the credit until after you have closed on the home. So you would have to find someone to lend you the money for several months until you got your tax refund.

What are the benefits of accepting credit cards versus other forms of payment such as checks?

Accepting credit cards as a form of payment increases the likely hood that you'll receive payment for your product or service. If the credit card used is good, the bank that issues the credit card pays your customer's bill. The customer is then required to pay the bank, not you. If the customer pays by check, you run the risk that the check will bounce and that you might not see your money. With the credit card, you get the money even if the customer doesn't have it on hand. I hope this helps. Consumers also find it less of a hassle to use credit cards for both online and offline transactions since most credit card associations (Visa and MasterCard) limit the cardholder's liability to $50 for fraudulent transactions.

What down payment assistance programs are there?

My co-worker borrowed funds to hold them on deposit. The funds were verified so she could qualify for her mortgage. It was easy to get the loan with no credit check because she agreed to just hold the funds on deposit. Then she got a down payment assistance program to make her down payment for her, and she just gave back the deposited funds loan proceeds to the lender. It also helped her credit. I know she got the loan with creditloader dot com, but I don't know what kind of down payment assistance she used. Can anyone recommend a down payment assistance program that is still widely accepted? jameswalker@inbox.lv
