The Complete Process

Your keys. Your equity. Your final payment.

Five transparent phases, from your first application to owning your home outright. Here's exactly what happens — and what's expected of you — at every step.

Buyer Expectations

What we expect from you

We look at your whole picture, not just a score — but every approved buyer brings the same six things to the table.

A 10% minimum down payment

At least 10% of the purchase price, verified and documented from your own savings, due at closing. On a $185,000 home, plan on about $18,500 plus closing costs. It's your equity in the home from day one.

Documented, stable income

W-2, 1099, or self-employed — all welcome. You'll provide recent pay stubs, bank statements, or tax returns showing you can comfortably carry the full monthly payment.

Room in your budget for the full payment

One fixed monthly payment: principal and interest on a 15-year note, plus escrowed property taxes and homeowner's insurance. Most buyers should plan for roughly $1,700–$2,200 a month.

Valid identification

A government-issued photo ID and a Social Security Number or ITIN. ITIN buyers are welcome.

You'll live in the home

We finance owner-occupants only. The home you buy is your primary residence — not an investment property or rental.

A complete, honest file

Current address, phone, employment history, and straightforward answers about any past credit events. Every application gets a case-by-case human review.

    Inspection & appraisal

    Years 1–15

    Homeownership & Building Equity

    Your monthly payment covers

    Principal and interest, escrowed property taxes and homeowner's insurance, and HOA fees if applicable.

    Watch your equity grow

    You amortize on a 15-year schedule — every payment moves real principal, so your ownership stake grows from the very first month.

    Resources we provide

    Credit-monitoring guidance, financial literacy resources, refinance prep, and ongoing customer support.

  5. 05

    When you're ready

    Pay It Off — or Refinance Early

    Two ways to the finish line

    Keep making payments and own the home free and clear in 15 years — or refinance into traditional bank financing whenever your credit qualifies.

    Refinance whenever it makes sense

    Shop traditional lenders, get approved, and pay off your Twelve22 Capital note whenever you're ready — only a 1% early-payoff fee on the remaining balance.

    No balloon, no deadline

    The note fully amortizes on its own — there is no balloon payment and no refinancing requirement hanging over you.
