Oklahoma Bankers Association We make bankers better!
During the last week of the state legislative session, both the House and Senate passed HB 1031, which became law earlier this month.
HB 1031 creates the Oklahoma Housing Stability Program. The purpose of the program is to increase the number of single-family residences available for purchase across the State of Oklahoma for families with incomes up to $120% of the AMI, provide gap financing to aid and incentivize the production of rental housing across the state and remove the barrier to homeownership for Oklahomans caused by the lack of available funds for down payment and closing costs associated with buying a home.
