Can you answer tfv4mizzou’s question?:
I know about the ,000 tax credit, but I’m looking for programs that offer federal or local grants to home buyers or first time home buyers. I’m looking for anything that offers assistance to buyers in St. Peters, St. Charles, O’fallon or surrounding areas in Missouri.

You should call you local city and county government Department of Housing. They normally administer any down payment assistance or first time home buyers programs.
Make sure you talk to someone from the Housing Department and not just a clerk or a receptionist.
I hope this has been of some use to you, good luck.

talk to a real estate agent to see if there are any current programs – there might be right now and they usually aren’t just grants – they often require you to stay in the house a certain number of years or you have to pay them back – at least in part and withe the fed offering $8000, I doubt any states are going to kick in more – 8000 is a lot more than states used to offer
