Not Everything Is Too Good to Be True

Sometimes, It’s Just a Smart Move

By Vanessa Saunders | Associate Broker, Keeler Family Realtors

We’ve all been trained to be skeptical. "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is."

But every once in a while, something comes along that is as good as it sounds—no catch, no gimmicks, just a solid opportunity.

And right now, that opportunity is the HOPER Program.

If you’re thinking about buying a home, you already know the biggest roadblocks:

  • Upfront costs – Saving for a down payment while juggling life’s other expenses? Tough. 
  • Closing costs – Those add up fast and can feel like a financial sucker punch.
  • Realtor fees – The confusion around who pays what can make things even trickier.

But what if I told you that a program exists that can cover up to $13,000 of these costs? Yes, including your buyer’s agent fees. In fact, you are free to spend it on anything you want!

HOPER: A Real Solution for Homebuyers

This isn't some too-good-to-be-true scheme. It’s an actual, available program that helps qualified buyers with:

  • Closing Costs– So you can keep more of your hard-earned cash.
  • Down Payment Assistance – Helping you move into a home sooner rather than later.
  • Buyer Agent Fees – Yes, you read that right. This program can even help cover the cost of having a professional Realtor in your corner!
  • Tax Benefits – The required energy efficiency upgrades (like solar panels) may make you eligible for a 30% federal tax credit, meaning more money back at tax time!
  • Lower Heating & Cooling Costs
– Solar energy isn't just good for the environment—it drastically reduces your utility bills. Imagine paying less for electricity every single month just because you took advantage of this program!

Why Haven’t You Heard About This?

Because most people don’t take the time to read the fine print.

And most real estate agents aren’t actively marketing this opportunity.

But I am.

As an Associate Broker with Keeler Family Realtors, I make it my mission to find every possible advantage for my buyers. And in today’s market, this is one of the most powerful tools available.

Who Qualifies?

The program is open to many buyers, and the best way to find out if you’re eligible is to ask.
