BENEFITS OF HOMEREADY®

Review the following benefits of the HomeReady® Loan Program and see if it is the right fit for your homeownership goals.

Qualify with help

HomeReady® mortgages allow co-borrowers who don’t live in the home to be included on the mortgage, such as parents or others who want to help. And, extended family or other household member’s income can help you qualify—even if they aren’t on the mortgage.

Down payments as low as 3%

Unlike a standard conventional loan that requires at least 5% down—HomeReady® is ideal for homebuyers with limited savings, and the down payment and closing costs can be paid from sources other than your own funds.

Savings over the life of the loan

With private mortgage insurance that may cost less over time—may be eligible to be cancelled once 20% home equity is reached, unlike mortgage insurance on government-insured loans.
