A rate that's ~0.50% below the national average* can lead to big monthly and annual savings—and even more over the life of your loan.

## It was time to renovate the mortgage experience

The traditional mortgage process runs on sales calls, manual steps, and “rate-and-switch” teasers—none of which help you save money. We designed a better way.

### Get a low rate, faster

Our streamlined application process keeps rates low and delivers results fast. Get a personalized rate quote and an editable pre-approval letter, lickety-split.

### A fully online, self-serve app

Apply, upload documents, and complete tasks entirely online. No sales calls or admin ping-pong—so you can move at your pace.

### Easily compare your options

See your estimated monthly payment, closing costs, and rate options clearly before you commit. Compare and decide what works best for you—not what a loan officer pushes.

## Already a homeowner? See what a refinance could unlock.

Besides saving thousands on your mortgage with a rate that's ~0.50% below the national average,* a refi can help you redesign your mortgage to meet your current financial needs. We make it easy.

### A lower rate and lower payments

A lower rate reduces the interest charged on your loan—which can lower your monthly payment and the total interest you pay over time.

### New loan terms

Shorten your loan to pay off your home faster, extend to lower your monthly payment, or switch between an adjustable-rate and fixed-rate mortgage.

## How do you keep your mortgage rates low?

Unlike traditional lenders, we use automation and a streamlined digital experience to operate more efficiently and pass that value on to borrowers through lower rates.

### Do I need to apply to see my rate?

No. Unlike many traditional lenders, you don't need to fill out a full application or speak with a loan officer just to see your rate. You can get an instant, personalized rate estimate and monthly payment online. No commitment and no hard credit check required.

### Can I apply with a co-borrower?

Yes. You can add a co-borrower and collaborate throughout the application process. Both of you can upload documents, track progress, and stay aligned in one shared experience.

### What if Wealthfront Home Lending isn't available in my state yet?

Financing in Colorado is available to all Wealthfront clients, with Texas and California coming soon. You can [join the waitlist](/content/home-lending-waitlist/signup/index.html) to be the first to know when we expand to new states.

### Do I need a Wealthfront account to join?

Yes. You'll need to open and fund any one of our Wealthfront accounts to gain access to Home Lending. You can [get started for just $1](/content/start/account-type/index.html).

### What types of loans do you offer?

We offer Conventional and Jumbo loans (up to $5M) with fixed or adjustable rates (ARMs), term lengths from 10 to 30 years, and down payment options as low as 3%. Our loans are available for both purchasing and refinancing.

### Do you require a hard credit check?

No, not to see your rate estimate. Your rate estimate is based on the credit score you enter yourself, so we don't run a credit check at that stage. If you decide to move forward with pre-approval, we'll run a soft credit check with your permission. A soft check does not impact your credit score. A hard credit check only happens later in the process, if you choose to submit a formal mortgage application and move forward. We'll always do that with your permission.
