Go Green Loan

In an effort to help homeowners reduce their energy costs both FHA and VA have established loan programs that allow energy efficient improvements to be financed into a mortgage without requiring any additional qualification. At Affinity Mortgage, we offer the Go Green Loan which takes advantage of these government programs and in conjunction with our business partners we are able to make this a very simple, streamlined process. Our goal is to help homeowners reduce their energy costs, increase the value of their home, and receive all available rebates and credits to help offset the costs of these upgrades.

The Go Green Loan can be used to purchase a home and add energy efficient upgrades so that the new homeowner can begin enjoying energy savings as soon as they move in. The Go Green Loan is also offered as a streamlined refinance for current FHA or VA homeowners that will enable them to make energy efficient upgrades without requiring an appraisal or income documentation. In the case of a refinance, no equity or re-qualification is required. If you have any questions about our Go Green Loan program please contact Mike Wallace at Affinity Mortgage- 480-668-1100.
