First Time Home Buyers:
First-time home buyers may be intimidated when it comes to purchasing a home. Here are five reasons why buying your first home in Pawtucket might be a good idea:

  1. When you own your home, you can deduct the cost of your mortgage loan interest from your federal income taxes.
  2. Local home ownership, starter home and grants may be available to first-time home buyers. Check with local affordable housing resources.
  3. Properties in Pawtucket are affordable, convenient and close to everything you need.
  4. Pawtucket is close to mass transit and enjoys compact, walkable neighborhoods. Your monthly housing transportation cost is dramatically lower since you will drive less miles to the places you frequent.
  5. Pawtucket is close to Providence's many universities, schools and employment centers. It's also Rhode Island's easiest commute to Boston.

Local and regional bank branches and credit unions are standing by to assist you in obtaining financing to buy a home in Pawtucket.
