Hi globalhousefinder,
As far as the current market scenario goes, it's difficult to find out a lender who'd be willing to lend you if you're buying a home with zero down payment and closing costs. So, what i feel is, you should try and keep aside some cash for the down payment and closing costs. Moreover, if you aren't paying the closing costs, you'd probably get a higher rate.
Considering that you're in family with low income, you may consider going for FHA loans. There are VA loans too. But I think you're not a veteran. So, you won't be able to qualify for a VA loan. The FHA approved lenders would require you to pay down minimum of 3.5% of the loan amount. As far as the mortgage program is concerned, you may talk to a few FHA lenders and find out what they can offer you.
You may even talk to the FHA lenders in this community. Just go for a no-obligation free loan consultation with the lenders and you'll come to know how much you can borrow and which program you may qualify for.
May god bless you.
