Use carefully

Do not flatten the CHFA hub into one fake mortgage or one fake DPA product

This page stays public because the official structure is still useful, but these details should not be flattened into fake certainty.

This page should stay a statewide CHFA hub. Public copy should route readers to the correct family page instead of treating the whole menu as one program.

Source note: The old slug-linked URL now resolves to a Government Insured child page, while the current umbrella entry point is the All Homebuyer Mortgage Programs page.
