Frequently asked questions

What is a homebuyer plan?

A homebuyer plan is a personalized snapshot showing what home price you may qualify to buy, which loan programs may fit your situation, and how much cash you may need at closing. It is built by a Certified Mortgage Advisor using your income, debts, credit range, and goals - without a hard credit pull to start. Eligibility depends on borrower profile and current program guidelines. Subject to underwriting approval.

Do I need a hard credit pull to get a homebuyer plan?

No. The initial plan can be built using a soft credit range and self-reported income. A hard credit pull is only requested when you are ready to move forward with a formal pre-approval or loan application.

How long does it take to get a homebuyer plan?

The interactive tools take about 5 minutes each. A live strategy call typically runs 20 minutes. Most first-time buyers walk away with a clear picture of program fit and estimated cash-to-close within the same day.

Is this a commitment or an application?

No. The homebuyer plan is educational and informational only. It is not a loan application, a commitment to lend, or a guarantee of approval or terms. Eligibility depends on credit, income, assets, property, occupancy, and underwriting.

What loan programs might my homebuyer plan include?

Depending on your profile, program options may include FHA, VA (for eligible veterans), conventional, jumbo, USDA (for eligible rural areas), Non-QM (for self-employed borrowers), and state or county down payment assistance programs like CalHFA and NJHMFA. Program availability may vary.
