Dreaming of owning your own home but not sure if you're ready? With our Rent vs Buy Program, many clients are surprised to learn they could afford a home for the same—or even less—than what they're currently paying in rent. And the best part? You could get started with as little as $1,000 down. Our calculator helps you compare your current rent with a potential mortgage, breaking it all down in a simple monthly budget analysis.
