Learn More: Join us for a virtual info session on Thursday, August 8 at 1pm (AZ) to learn about the Mortgage Credit Certificate program and how homebuyers can claim up to $2,000 in tax credits each year they live in their homes. . This means that homeowners can save up to $50,000+ over the life of their mortgage! It’s a win/win/win – more loan (lenders win!), more house (realtors rejoice!), and more money in the homebuyer’s pocket for years to come. . The Mortgage Credit Certificate program is administered by Community Investment Corporation and is now being offered statewide across Arizona. . RSVP to join us on August 8 at 1pm for a virtual info session with MCC staff to learn all about how the program works and get all your questions answered.
