We believe in rewarding members of our community who take on the important responsibility of preparing our children and young adults for the future. We also know that teachers make good neighbors who have a positive impact on those around them. If you’re an educator looking for a new home, explore the benefits of our Educator Home Loans program and find out if this type of mortgage is right for you.
Mortgage Benefits for Teachers
Advantages of Supreme Lending’s Educator Home Loans include both financial incentives and community support.
Lower Closing Costs and Fees
The team at Supreme Lending is always looking for ways to give back to Texas communities. Our Educator Home Loans cut closing costs by up to $800, letting us give back by reducing the cost of buying a home for the teachers who live and work in our neighborhoods.
Teachers also qualify for discounted real estate agent fees of up to $800. In total, we apply $1,600 in credits to your home purchase at closing.
Faster Loan Processing
Teacher loans take priority at Supreme Lending. Our Educator Home Loans program features faster-than-average turnaround times for loan approvals, processing, and closing, which means you won’t stand in line when it comes to your mortgage. Supreme Lending mortgages close in an average of about 21 days, so you could potentially be in your new home within the month.
Giving Back to Your School
We know it can be challenging for schools to find the funds they need for both essentials and extras. When your loan closes with Supreme Lending, we’ll donate up to $400 to any program you choose at your school. You can use the money to stock the teacher’s lounge, buy new art supplies, contribute to team uniforms, or for anything else your students and faculty need to succeed.
