What is Pathways Program?

Pathways is American Pacific Mortgage's exclusive down payment assistance program designed to make homeownership more affordable for first-time buyers. This in-house program pairs a 30-year fixed FHA loan with assistance covering 3.5% or 5% of the purchase price — significantly reducing the cash you need at closing. Because Pathways is APM's own program, processing is streamlined and approvals move faster than third-party assistance programs. Contact Q Home Loans to find out if you qualify.
