THIS IS NOT CREDIT REPAIR.WE WANT TO MAKE THAT ABSOLUTELY CLEAR.
HOMEBOUND™ is not a traditional credit-repair program.
You are not enrolling in an open-ended service designed to broadly improve your credit someday.
You came to RentEnd for one reason:
YOU WANT TO BUY A HOME.
And that’s exactly what HOMEBOUND™ is focused on.
We identify the specific credit obstacles affecting your mortgage readiness and create a defined strategy to address them.
THE OBJECTIVE ISN’T “BETTER CREDIT SOMEDAY.”
THE OBJECTIVE IS GETTING YOU MORTGAGE-READY.
FAST.
In as little as 10 days.*
How HOMEBOUND™ works
FROM CREDIT ROADBLOCK TO MORTGAGE READYHERE’S HOW HOMEBOUND™ WORKS
HOMEBOUND™ — A RentEnd Mortgage Readiness Program
-
Step 01 of 08
WE IDENTIFY WHAT’S HOLDING YOU BACK
HOMEBOUND™ focuses on the specific credit issues affecting your mortgage readiness, so you know exactly what needs attention and what needs to happen next.
-
Step 02 of 08
WE BUILD YOUR PERSONAL HOMEBOUND™ PLAN
You receive an individualized mortgage-readiness strategy identifying the collections that need to be addressed.
-
Step 03 of 08
WE NEGOTIATE YOUR COLLECTION DEBTS
HOMEBOUND™’s highly trained experts negotiate directly with creditors, collectors and debt holders to reduce your collection debts to the lowest legitimate payoff amounts available, helping remove the credit barriers standing between you and mortgage readiness.
-
Step 04 of 08
YOU RECEIVE YOUR FINAL ACTION PLAN
You receive the negotiated or confirmed payoff amounts, the collections that need to be resolved, the recommended payment sequence and your expected timeline.
-
Step 05 of 08
YOU TAKE ACTION
You complete the required actions and pay the applicable negotiated collection amounts. The faster you complete your required actions, the faster your HOMEBOUND™ journey can move.
-
Step 06 of 08
WE HELP REPLENISH UP TO $13,000 — AND COORDINATE YOUR DOCUMENTATION
Once your eligible pre-negotiated collections are paid, HOMEBOUND™ coordinates your available settlement letters, payoff confirmations, receipts and supporting documentation for lender review.
Most importantly, HOMEBOUND™ provides access to up to $13,000 in assistance to help replenish the funds you used to pay off those eligible collections, helping restore funds that may be needed for your down payment, closing costs and other eligible mortgage-related expenses.
-
Step 07 of 08
YOUR LENDER REQUESTS A RAPID RE-SCORE
Once your required actions are completed and supporting documentation is available, your lender requests a Rapid Re-Score through its authorized credit-reporting provider to update your credit profile and reflect the changes made through your HOMEBOUND™ plan.
-
Step 08 of 08
MORTGAGE APPROVAL — COMPLETE YOUR PATH TO HOMEOWNERSHIP
Your lender reviews your updated credit profile for MORTGAGE APPROVAL—the final step that completes your HOMEBOUND™ path to homeownership.
YOU CAN BE MORTGAGE-READY IN AS LITTLE AS 10 DAYS!*
Down-payment advantage
Imagine you’ve worked hard and saved thousands of dollars to buy your home.
Then you learn that qualifying collections need to be resolved before your mortgage can move forward.
Naturally, your first question may be:
“IF I USE MY DOWN-PAYMENT MONEY TO RESOLVE MY COLLECTIONS, WHAT HAPPENS TO MY DOWN PAYMENT?”
HOMEBOUND™ HELPS YOU SOLVE BOTH PROBLEMS.
HOMEBOUND™ helps you address the qualifying collections standing between you and mortgage readiness while helping replenish the down-payment funds used to resolve them.
Our highly trained experts negotiate directly with creditors, collectors and debt holders to reduce your collection debts to the lowest legitimate payoff amounts available, helping remove the credit barriers standing between you and mortgage readiness.
Once qualifying collections are successfully resolved through your approved HOMEBOUND™ plan:
YOU CAN RECEIVE UP TO
$13,000
TOWARD YOUR DOWN PAYMENT.*
That means you can use your existing funds to resolve qualifying collections without necessarily sacrificing the money you need to continue your path toward purchasing your home.
Stage 01 · Resolve
-
YOUR MONEY RESOLVES THE COLLECTIONS.
You use $8,000 of your existing savings to resolve your qualifying collections.
-
HOMEBOUND™ CAN PROVIDE UP TO $13,000.
HOMEBOUND™ can provide up to $13,000 toward your down payment and related closing costs.*
-
YOUR $8,000 IS REPLENISHED.
That means after replenishing the $8,000 used for collections, you could still have $5,000.
-
YOU STILL HAVE $5,000 TOWARD YOUR DOWN PAYMENT.
You still have $5,000 remaining to apply toward your down payment.
RESOLVE YOUR COLLECTIONS. KEEP MOVING TOWARD YOUR HOME.
In the example above, you use $8,000 of your existing savings to resolve your qualifying collections.
HOMEBOUND™ can provide up to:
$13,000
TOWARD YOUR DOWN PAYMENT AND RELATED CLOSING COSTS.*
That means after replenishing the $8,000 used for collections, you could still have:
$5,000
TOWARD YOUR DOWN PAYMENT AND CLOSING COSTS.*
AND IT COULD GET EVEN BETTER.
HOMEBOUND™ experts negotiate directly with creditors, collectors and debt holders to seek the lowest legitimate payoff amounts available.
WHAT IF YOUR $8,000 IN COLLECTIONS IS NEGOTIATED DOWN TO JUST $3,000?
You resolve the collections for $3,000—which means you could still have:
$10,000
TOWARD YOUR DOWN PAYMENT AND CLOSING COSTS.*
The less you need to pay toward your collections, the more of the available funds you may have toward getting into your home.*
NEXT: RAPID RE-SCORE.
Once the collections are resolved, your lender requests a Rapid Re-score to update your credit profile and move you toward what HOMEBOUND™ is ultimately designed to help you achieve:
MORTGAGE APPROVAL.
The final step in your HOMEBOUND™ path to homeownership.
Strategic use of your funds
MAKE THE MONEY YOU ALREADY SAVED WORK SMARTER.
HOMEBOUND™ helps eligible borrowers use their available funds strategically.
Instead of keeping every dollar untouched for a down payment while unresolved collections continue preventing your mortgage from moving forward, you can use existing funds to address the qualifying credit obstacles.
HOMEBOUND™ then helps fund your eligible down payment.*
UP TO
$13,000
That helps preserve more of your remaining money for other needs associated with becoming a homeowner, subject to the requirements of your mortgage transaction.
Your remaining funds could potentially be available for things such as closing costs, prepaid expenses, required reserves, moving expenses, other eligible home-purchase expenses, or simply keeping more of your own money available.
And there’s another HOMEBOUND™ advantage
QUALIFYING CREDIT-CARD PAYDOWN ASSISTANCE
Collections aren’t always the only obstacle.
Sometimes you’re making your credit-card payments on time, but the balances themselves are affecting your credit utilization and mortgage-readiness strategy.
For borrowers who qualify under an available special program, eligible credit-card paydown assistance can be provided in connection with closing.*
Illustrative only — not a score, not a projection.
- LOWER BALANCES.
- LOWER CREDIT UTILIZATION.
- A STRONGER MORTGAGE-READINESS STRATEGY.
