Who's behind this
Ashley Hickmon
Down Payment Assistance Specialist · Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation
Proudly licensed in all 50 states to serve borrowers nationwide.
Ashley Hickmon leads the Ashley Hickmon Team at Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation, licensed in all 50 states. Whether you're buying, building or refinancing, the team's job is to guide you through the entire loan process — from application to closing and beyond — and to find the loan with the right rate, terms and costs for your situation.
Most first-time buyers believe they need 20% down. They don't — and in almost every state there is public money set aside to help close the gap. The problem is that the information lives scattered across fifty different housing agency websites, written in language nobody outside the industry uses.
This site exists to fix that. It's a consolidated, plain-English directory of the down payment assistance programs and grants available to first-time buyers nationwide, maintained by a licensed mortgage professional rather than an ad network.
Financing a home is one of the biggest commitments you'll ever make. When you're ready to move from research to reality, you get a real person on the phone — no forms that disappear into a lead pool, no five different companies calling you. Call or text 303-669-8454 and you reach Ashley directly.

Ashley went above and beyond to make sure we had the right loan for us. She provided us options so we could run the numbers to make the best decision. There were zero hiccups in the process — smoothest financing we've ever done.

Took her time explaining everything to us as we went through the process. She was always available by phone, email or text to answer our questions. She went above and beyond to make everything work, and thought outside of the box.
