What is a buy down program?
You have a partner, us, prepay enough interest upfront to make it feel like you have lower interest rate temporarily.
Your interest rate stays the same for the life of your loan.
We prepay a portion of you payment at the time of closing, which could save you thousands in mortgage payments your first year.
A buy down program is:
You’re probably still wondering how this works…
The scenario
Imagine the purchase price of your new home is $450,000
You plan on making a 5% down payment.
You’re locking in an interest rate of 6.875% at the time your purchase.
That would make your loan amount $427,500 in this example
The deal
Year 1 your effective payment interest rate would be 5.875% making your monthly payment $2,529
Year 2 – 30 your interest rate would be 6.875% making your monthly payment of $2,808
That first year, you’d save $280 a month, which means we would pay and you would save $3,555 that first year.
The takeaway
You’d save $3,555 in year one!
That’s not money you have to pay later, it’s not deferred, and this isn’t an ARM.
This is a fixed rate for 30 years.
You’d save thousands of dollars in payments your first year that you’d otherwise pay if you didn’t choose to use a Buy Down Program.
If you’re buying a house this year, don’t throw money away that you could keep by using a buy down program!
You don’t have to have immaculate credit to qualify. Our buy down program works with most loan types: conventional, VA, FHA…
