FIRST-TIME HOMEBUYER GAME PLAN FAQ

What to Know Before You Download the Game Plan

Understand what the guide includes, what it does not replace, and how you will access it.

What is included in the First-Time Homebuyer Game Plan?

The printable guide includes a readiness snapshot, document and budget prompts, a home-comparison worksheet, and checklists covering offers, inspection, appraisal, closing, and post-closing tasks.

Should I print the Game Plan?

We highly recommend it. The worksheets and checklists are designed to be written on, making a printed copy useful for recording questions, comparing homes, and tracking important milestones.

Do I need to be ready to buy a home?

No. The guide can help whether you expect to buy soon or are still organizing your information, exploring your options, and deciding when to begin.

Will the guide tell me how much home I can afford?

No. It helps you prepare and identify important questions, but affordability and mortgage eligibility depend on your financial situation, the property, and applicable loan requirements.

Does requesting the guide start a mortgage application?

No. Requesting the Game Plan provides an educational resource. It does not start a mortgage application or obligate you to apply.

How will I receive the guide?

After submitting the form, you will be taken to a page where you can download the digital First-Time Homebuyer Game Plan.
