The program aims to increase homeownership in Colorado communities and offers many levels of assistance up to six percent that aids borrowers with closing costs and down payments. The assistance is zero percent interest and is forgiven monthly over three years, after which no payment is required.

metroDPA serves a wide range of borrowers with competitive rates from first-time homeowners to those who have already purchased a home. The program does not involve purchase price restrictions and offers a generous income limit.
