First-Time Homebuyers

Primary Residency Homes

Whether you're buying your first home, moving to Maine, relocating, or downsizing, you can trust our experienced loan officers to help you select a home mortgage that fits your needs. We offer mortgages for single-family homes and two to four-unit homes. In addition, if you are willing to take on landlord responsibilities, rent paid by tenants can help with your mortgage payment. 

Vacation & Second Homes

 
Maine has a wide variety of beautiful four-season second homes, including lakeside homes, ski condos, and other vacationland properties. If you’re interested in purchasing a second home, let our trusted mortgage professionals help you.

You can count on KFS Mortgage Company to provide reliable resources, mortgage loan guidance, and assistance throughout the home-buying process. Properties must be suitable for year-round use and meet certain requirements. 

2-4 Unit Homes


Two to four-unit homes are an attractive option. If you are willing to take on landlord responsibilities, rent paid by tenants can help with your mortgage payment.

Manufactured Homes

 
With fixed-rate mortgage options, purchasing a manufactured home is a great way to become a homeowner with little to no down payment. We offer financing for single-wide and double-wide mobile homes and more. Your manufactured home must be permanently affixed to land.  If you do not already own land, we can include that in your mortgage loan.

Now that you know a few of the basics about purchasing a home in Maine, you may want to know the next steps.  We are here to guide you through the entire process from start to finish.
