The San José State University Faculty and Staff Homebuyer Program

Recognizing the high cost of living in San Jose , and the need to attract top talent to SJSU, on January 10, 2006, the City Council
approved the creation of the SJSU faculty Homebuyer Program. The SJSU Faculty Homebuyer program (FHP) was originally
modeled after the highly successful Teacher Homebuyer program (THP) and designed to assist full-time tenure-track faculty.

A year after initially approving the creation of the FHP pilot program, the City Council authorized the program's expansion to include
all full-time SJSU staff and the program was renamed the SJSU Faculty and Staff Homebuyer Program (FSHP). The FSHP and the
THP help the City to attract and retain highly trained educators to San Jose . This benefits the community by providing a quality
educational experience to San Jose State students and contributes to San Jose being one of the most educated cities in the country.
