of tax-exempt revenue bonds to fund home loans for Montana homebuyers at
interest rates generally lower than current market rates. The program is
primarily intended for first time homebuyers. The MBOH loan may be used in
conjunction with any FHA, VA, or RD loan. Certain restrictions apply, so contact
us for specific guidelines.

Mortgage Credit Certificates
The Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) is generated from a program offered by the
Montana Board of Housing. A qualified homebuyer using an MCC is able to claim up
to 20% of their annual mortgage interest paid as a federal income tax credit.
The remaining mortgage interest (80%) continues to qualify as an itemized
deduction. This provides you with a dollar-for-dollar reduction of your federal
income taxes! The MCC may be used in conjunction with any conventional, FHA, VA,
or RD loan.

loan for your particular situation with the best interest rates and terms
