For the first time in her adult life, Denise Soltero feels at home.
After years of renting, the single mother bought a house through the Pathway to Purchase program.
“I was able to purchase a home that me and my daughter were able to gain security and comfort in, knowing we weren’t going anywhere else for a while,” Soltero said. “Being a single parent … the dream of owning a home seemed like such a reach.”
Administered by the city of Tucson and Pima County’s Tucson Industrial Development Authority, the program provides downpayment assistance of up to $20,000 to qualifying residents to buy homes in certain parts of town.
