Questions?
How much does the program cost?
- The program has no hidden costs or added fees. HomeLight Cash Offer costs the same as a traditional mortgage, and the mortgage rates are typically in line with what you would see from other local lenders.
How long does the HomeLight Cash Offer process take?
- It depends on how quickly you provide the requested documentation for your upfront underwrite. We can complete the underwrite in a few days after we have the loan application and all supporting documents. Once you are fully cash approved, we can close on your home in as few as 12 days after offer acceptance. The refinance of your short-term cash loan into a long-term mortgage takes 20-30 days on average.
How does the short-term cash loan work?
- HomeLight provides you a short-term cash loan at the same interest rate as the mortgage, which you combine with your own down payment to purchase your home. You will receive loan disclosures for both your HomeLight cash loan and your mortgage once you’re under contract with the seller.
