Buying a home is a significant commitment, whether it’s your first home-buying experience or you’re looking to downsize after several previous moves. The process can seem complicated, with numerous forms to sign, documents needed for the loan application, appraisals and inspections to coordinate – it can seem exhausting just thinking about it!
Don’t you wish you had an experienced guide to help you along every step of the way? Providing easy solutions to applying for a loan and signing off on final paperwork?
SAFE’s mortgage team is here to help you with your homebuying experience, from that first inkling you’d like to buy your first home to welcoming you into your new home.
If you’re brand-new to the home-buying experience, attend one of SAFE’s First-Time Homebuyer webinars. These no-cost, engaging webinars hosted by one of SAFE’s mortgage officers will provide you with insights into preparing your finances for buying a home, including tips on improving your credit score; determining what you can afford; and the different kinds of home loan options available.

Even before you start looking for a home, connect with a SAFE mortgage officer for a complimentary consultation to get an in-depth overview of your finances to determine how much you can comfortably afford as well as loan options available to you. Even if you may be a year or two away from beginning your homebuying journey, our mortgage officers can give you direction on next steps specific for your situation to help you prepare.

SAFE Credit Union members have exclusive access to HomeAdvantage, a program that provides wraparound home-buying assistance as well as cash rewards* paid to you after closing. HomeAdvantage will connect you to vetted real estate agents with deep knowledge of the neighborhoods you’re interested in purchasing in. The program also features a free real estate search with the latest MLS listings. And, whether you’re buying or selling, if you use a real estate agent through the HomeAdvantage network, you’ll receive cash rewards on closing.
Sign up for HomeAdvantage today.
While some people may tell you that you don’t have to apply for a home loan until after you make an offer on a house, there are far more benefits to having your loan approved before you even start looking for homes.

*The HomeAdvantage program is made available to you through a relationship between SAFE Credit Union and CU Realty Services. Program Cash Rewards are awarded by CU Realty Services to buyers and sellers who select and use a real estate agent in the HomeAdvantage network. Home buyers or sellers are not eligible for Cash Rewards if they use an agent outside this network. Using SAFE Credit Union for a mortgage is not a requirement to earn Cash Rewards. Cash Rewards amounts are dependent on the commissions paid to the agent. SAFE Credit Union may have specific rules on how your Cash Rewards will be paid out. Cash Rewards incentives are available in most states; however, are void where prohibited by law or by the lender. Please consult with your credit union to get details that may affect you.
