Thinking about buying a home in Tennessee? Let’s start with your questions. Share your name, email, and phone below, and Gretchen Moore with Elam Real Estate will follow up with homebuying information and next steps.
THDA’s Homeownership for Heroes offers reduced-rate options for eligible active-duty military members, veterans, National Guard members, reservists, firefighters, EMTs and paramedics, and state and local law enforcement officers. On May 5, 2026, THDA announced the addition of full-time K–12 teachers employed at Tennessee public or private schools.
Other homebuyers are welcome to reach out, too. Gretchen can help you explore the buying process and connect with a lender about other options that may fit your situation. This invitation does not mean every buyer qualifies for Homeownership for Heroes.
A THDA-approved lender must confirm eligibility, current terms, and available options. THDA down payment assistance is a second mortgage with its own repayment or forgiveness terms. This is a request for information, not a loan application or class registration.
