homebuyer education: encourage borrowers to take it early

To help lenders best inform their borrowers on CHFA’s process, we’ve created a Steps to Completing CHFA Approved Homebuyer Education flyer. This flyer is available on our website but can now be found under the “Forms” section in HomeConnection.

Please feel free to download this flyer and send it to those borrowers considering utilizing CHFA early in the homebuying process.

Important Tips:

• Encourage borrowers to take a class early! Waiting may delay or postpone a closing.
• All borrowers should complete a course and present a valid homebuyer education certificate to their lender prior to their mortgage loan closing date.
• For borrowers taking an online course, to receive their certificate, a follow-up call with the CHFA-approved homebuyer education provider they signed up with is required.
  • Borrowers must work directly with the homebuyer education provider to schedule the follow-up call.
  • Borrowers should schedule this call promptly to avoid potential closing delays.
