Yuba City is the Sutter County seat and the commercial center of the Yuba-Sutter area, about fifty minutes north of Sacramento along Highway 99. We help Yuba City buyers and homeowners with affordable purchase loans, refinances and rural-friendly financing. Many Yuba City buyers have the income to afford a monthly mortgage payment but not the savings for a down payment and closing costs. Down payment assistance programs exist for exactly that gap, and Pacific National Lending works with CalHFA-participating lenders on the programs most Yuba City buyers use.

Yuba City remains one of the more affordable markets we serve, with strong demand from first-time buyers, FHA and VA borrowers connected to nearby Beale Air Force Base, and buyers relocating from higher-priced areas. Many properties on the edge of town qualify for USDA zero-down financing. For Yuba City buyers, CalHFA's MyHome Assistance Program provides a deferred-payment junior loan of up to 3.5 percent of the purchase price or appraised value on FHA loans (3 percent on conventional) for down payment or closing costs, with no monthly payment until the home is sold, refinanced or paid off. It pairs with CalHFA FHA, VA, USDA and conventional first mortgages.

Housing ranges from 1950s to 70s homes near downtown Plumas Street to 1990s and 2000s subdivisions along Butte House Road and in the south end of town, plus orchards and acreage in the surrounding Sutter County countryside. Our process for Yuba City buyers using assistance starts with a standard pre-approval, then a review of every program you qualify for. We show you the combined loan structure, the total monthly payment and the cash to close with and without assistance, so you can choose with clear numbers.
Assistance can often be combined with seller credits and lender credits, so an Yuba City first-time buyer may bring very little to closing. We structure the offer with your agent so the seller's contribution covers what the program does not.
We help borrowers with down payment assistance throughout Yuba City, including Downtown Plumas Street, Butte House Road, South Yuba City, Tierra Buena, and across the Yuba-Sutter area. Yuba City is about fifty minutes from our Gold River office, and we handle the entire loan process remotely when that is easier.
