The Ohio Housing Finance Agency provides home buying opportunities for the citizens of Ohio. Help with loans, mortgages, and down payments are available through numerous programs offered by the Ohio HFA. They also provide help with renting, senior citizens, and first time home buyers to find safe, affordable, quality housing. The Ohio HFA also works with property developers and local communities to make sure affordable housing is available.

The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 prohibits the use of the $7,500 new First-Time Homebuyer Credit in conjunction with tax-exempt Mortgage Revenue Bonds. Because the OHFA First-Time Homebuyer Program is financed with tax-exempt Mortgage Revenue Bonds, homeowners who use the OHFA program are not eligible for the credit.
