Our home buying and down payment assistance program can unlock your listing for buyers who count themselves out — because a down payment is the only thing standing between them and "yes."
*Figures below reflect one example buyer scenario, subject to buyer qualification, seller cooperation, and credit approval. Not a commitment to lend.
If your seller will consider sales concessions on a full-price offer, we can give you a way to attract buyers who could purchase the house for zero down and zero cash to close.
*Figures are illustrative, reflect one example buyer scenario, and are not a guarantee of terms for any individual borrower. Actual credit score, down payment, and cash-to-close amounts depend on buyer qualification, seller-paid concessions (subject to loan program and investor limits), and are subject to change and credit approval. Not a commitment to lend.
Our program helps you attract buyers to your own listings — without adding another line item to your marketing budget.

As the cost of power climbs, the cost of homeownership climbs with it.
Between aging infrastructure, EV charging demand, and data center growth, the cost of power is on track to keep rising — quietly eating into the housing budget of every buyer looking at your listing. LOWTILITY lets a homebuyer turn their home into an energy-efficient home, and capitalize on the buying power that's currently trapped in their utility bill — turning it into down payment assistance.
Do you have a buyer who fits one of these four?
They qualify for the mortgage payment today — they just haven't had the runway to save a down payment.
They can afford the payment and have the savings — but the anxiety of using most or all of it to buy a house keeps them stuck on the sidelines.
Instead of using a down payment to get into the house, we cover the down payment and use that money to pay down their existing debt — bringing their monthly cash flow to a number they're comfortable with.
Instead of down payment assistance, we can use that same contribution to permanently buy down their interest rate today — so they don't have to wait on the market.
Large portals attract buyers using your listing — then turn around and sell those same buyer leads back to you, or straight to your competitor down the street.
Our program and marketing strategy are built to meaningfully increase buyer activity on the listings you already have.
The updated Uniform Appraisal Dataset (UAD 3.6) now captures a home's energy-efficient features — green upgrades, solar, and efficient HVAC — as structured data on every appraisal, not an afterthought.
It's time to pay attention to more than a home's acquisition cost. The operational cost of owning it matters more every year. If you've ever paid attention to the MPG sticker when buying a car, this program is built for buyers who do the same when buying a house.
*Per Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac guidance: UAD 3.6 entered broad voluntary use January 2026, becomes mandatory for appraisals sold to the GSEs November 2, 2026, with legacy forms retired May 2027. Confirm current dates before publishing.
Tell us about your listing or your stuck buyer. We'll walk you through the program on a short call and give you a straight answer — no cost, no obligation, and it's subject to buyer qualification either way.
We only take on a limited number of agents per market at a time so we can actually work each buyer we're introduced to.
*The "625 score, as little as $2,500 out of pocket, zero down with seller concessions" figures referenced on this page reflect one example buyer scenario. Actual terms depend on buyer qualification, seller cooperation, program guidelines, and credit approval. Not a commitment to lend.
No. There's no cost to you or your seller to offer the program. We help you market the listing to qualified buyers who want to purchase but may believe they don't have enough money for a down payment or closing costs.
It helps turn "I can't afford this home" into "I may be able to buy it." Many buyers eliminate themselves because they overestimate the down payment and cash required to close. We use yard signs, flyers, social media, and direct-to-consumer marketing to show qualified buyers that zero-down and homebuyer-assistance options may be available — meaning more interested buyers, more showings, and a better chance of selling the home.
Qualified buyers with credit scores starting at 580 may be eligible. Additional requirements apply to scores between 580 and 619, while buyers with scores of 620 or higher may have more options. Unlike many assistance programs, there are no income limits, geographic restrictions, or military-service requirements. Buyers must still have sufficient income, meet applicable loan guidelines, and receive loan approval.
No. Seller concessions are completely optional. However, when a seller is willing to contribute toward allowable closing costs or accept a lower earnest-money deposit, we may be able to create a stronger offer for potential buyers — such as zero down and potentially zero cash to close. The seller controls the decision; we simply show you how different options could help the listing attract more qualified buyers.
No. The program is designed to work within a typical 30-day closing timeline, generally with a two-week financing contingency. If the buyer includes eligible energy-efficient improvements, the funds are handled through an escrow holdback. No work begins until after closing, the seller has received the proceeds, and the buyer owns the home.
As much or as little as you want. There's no special process or additional workload for the listing agent. With your permission, we can provide the flyers, install a yard sign, respond to interested buyers, and handle the financing conversations. You focus on representing your seller — we focus on identifying and qualifying additional buyers.
The program can be offered on most eligible residential listings that will be purchased as a primary residence. Several financing and homebuyer-assistance options are available, including zero-down programs for qualified buyers with credit scores starting at 580. Final eligibility depends on the buyer, property type, occupancy, loan approval, and applicable program guidelines.
We market the opportunity where potential buyers are most likely to see it — including yard signs, property flyers, social media, QR codes, and direct-to-consumer campaigns. The message is simple: you may be closer to owning this home than you think. Our goal is to reach buyers who want to purchase but haven't taken the next step because they're worried about the down payment or cash required at closing.
We take it from there. When someone scans the QR code or responds to an advertisement, our team contacts them, reviews their financing options, and helps them complete the preapproval process. Once preapproved, the buyer is returned to the referring agent. If the buyer isn't already represented, we can introduce them to the listing agent — with the buyer's permission — to see whether the agent would like to help them.
