Take the First Step Toward Your New Home with ConnectHome.
How the ConnectHome Program Works
Save with Purpose
Open a ConnectHome high-yield savings account and start building toward homeownership. You’ll make regular deposits—monthly or biweekly—based on a schedule that works for you.
Get Rewarded for Saving
When you’re ready to buy, we will match your savings up to $1,000 as a lender credit applied directly to your closing costs. That’s more money back in your pocket at one of the most important times of your life.
Program Highlights:
- Compatible with VA, USDA, Home Ready, and other conventional loans
- You’ll receive quarterly progress updates
- Eligible for primary residences including single-family homes, condos, townhouses, and modular/manufactured homes
