The loan terms for the NSP program are as follows: The NSP assistance is a zero percent interest. There is a maximum of $20,000 per household and borrowers will receive enough assistance to bring the housing ratio (principle, interest, taxes and insurance, if any) to 29%.

The recapture period is ten years and after the tenth year, this loan is forgiven.
