Turn "Just Missed"
Into "Just Closed."
Stop losing commissions to credit declines. DreamBuilder gives you a way to convert "not approved" buyers into closings β and turn fallout into your next paycheck.
The Buyer Your Lender Declined
Is Still a Closing.
Every 'no' from a traditional lender is a commission you walked away from. DreamBuilder lets you say yes to the buyers who don't fit the credit box β so you keep the listing, the buyer, and the deal.
Credit-Challenged Buyers
580+ qualifies β and below 580 or no-score buyers may still close with reserves and compensating factors. Alternative credit (rent, utilities, telecom) accepted.
Self-Employed & 1099
Your self-employed and gig-economy buyers qualify with bank statements, P&L, or WVOE β no W-2 or paystubs required. Great for artists, influencers, and cash-based earners.
Post-Bankruptcy Buyers
1-day bankruptcy seasoning. Recently divorced, displaced, or rebuilding clients can stabilize and buy now β not two years from now. A perfect attorney-referral solution.
DACA & ITIN Buyers
Open the door to an underserved market. Non-permanent residents, DACA recipients, and ITIN holders qualify with as little as 3.5% down β no SSN required.
Move Builder Inventory
Builders are sitting on the most unsold inventory since 2009. Offer a solution their in-house lender can't β and become the agent who moves standing inventory.
High-DTI Buyers
Buyer added a car loan or store credit before funding? 50/60 DTI thresholds and exceptions with compensating factors keep the deal alive instead of dead.
There's a Whole Buyer Pool
You're Not Closing β Yet.
Millions of credit-worthy renters pay rent and utilities on time but can't qualify through Agency or Non-QM financing. DreamBuilder is how you reach them first.
Renters who pay rent and utilities on time but have been locked out of homeownership β until now.
Of buyers prefer new construction, yet only 42% close on it β most fail the preferred lender's credit requirements.
Bankruptcy filings in 2024 (up 16.2%) β a steady stream of attorney-referral buyers needing a 1-day seasoning solution.
ITINs registered since 2022 β an underserved, growing market of credit-worthy buyers seeking a path to ownership.
How a DreamBuilder
Deal Closes
DreamBuilder uses a Structured Financing Agreement backed by a HUD-approved nonprofit government entity. Here's how you take a buyer from 'just missed' to keys in hand.
Find the Home & Submit for Approval
Your buyer finds a home; we submit it for the DreamBuilder Structured Financing Agreement approval. You stay the agent of record on the transaction.
Government Entity Purchases via FHA
An FHA-eligible government entity purchases the home using FHA financing through Open Mortgage Wholesale β providing the foundation for your buyer's path to ownership.
Buyer Locks In Their Option Price
Your buyer enters a Structured Financing Agreement, locking in the option-to-buy price, securing access to equity appreciation, and stable, predictable payments.
Buyer Moves In & Builds Equity
Payments lower the option price over time. Your client is protected from rent increases while building equity β and your commission is paid at closing.
Buyer Exercises the Option
When ready, your client takes full ownership through FHA Assumption, new financing, or sale of the property β and often comes back to you for their next move.
