Lauren sits down with Marc Emrich, Senior Loan Originator at Pivot Lending Group, to walk through down payment and closing cost assistance options available to first-time buyers in Jefferson County, including communities like Lakewood, Arvada, Golden, and Evergreen. They cover how programs like CHFA work, what the money actually looks like when it comes to you, and who tends to qualify — including buyers who assume they earn too much. Listeners will come away knowing what questions to ask and why starting the conversation early matters. Home Base is a weekly podcast from Pivot Lending Group helping first-time homebuyers understand the mortgage process, available assistance programs, and what to expect on the road to ownership. 🌐 Resources in English & Spanish: https://cofirsttimebuyergrants.com/
