Has anyone utilized this in the Teaneck area ( also NJ?) I make income within the guidelines but have a DTI of about 43%/48%. Will investors issue this loan?

Does anyone have experience with this type of transaction

It's not up to investors to issue that discount, it's a state program, and the program has guidelines.

Call the banks! You can find out the details form them and based on your address and income they can tell you if you seem to fit the guidelines

I would not advise this. Lots of the banks are dishonest and will tell you that you are approved for first time homeowners but they might leave out a fact that you have to make under a certain amount.
In lakewood the LRRC knows all the requirements for each first time homeowners program.
There must be a place in ny

Sorry it was a long time ago. I don't even know if they still have it. Walk in to your local branch and ask them. From what I can remember was the same rate as Investers with 6k toward closing costs

The HSBC program will match 4:1 for up to 1750 I belive for a savings account for first time home buyer. Check income requirements. You can also go to Sunny Mae class and they will connect you to people who can get you grants for closing costs and down payments.

I'm reading up thread that to be eligible, down payment max is 10%. Is that still the case? If I buy a 500k house and want to put down 120k I will not qualify (combining my $ with outside help)?
