      What Hero Rewards® Savings Do We Offer?

      Our Local Real Estate and Mortgage Specialists Give Back to You

      What makes Homes for Heroes unique is our local real estate specialists who give back a portion of their commission equal to 0.7% of the home purchase price to you.

      After you close, Homes for Heroes sends you a check so you can purchase new furniture, appliances, do some renovations, or take a much needed vacation after moving!

      Nobody else offers you this kind of real estate savings. We have over 3,300 real estate agents and mortgage lenders in 50 states who are committed to doing this for you. This is how we say thank you for your service.

      Use the slider below to see for yourself. If you work with our local real estate and mortgage specialists to purchase a home, the slider shows an estimate of what you would save after you close.

      Estimate Your Savings

      Learn how much you could save on your home purchase. Adjust the slider to see potential savings when you buy with a Homes for Heroes real estate and mortgage specialist. This is an estimate. Your actual savings may vary.

      Your Savings $2,600

      Additional Hero Savings Our Local Specialists Provide

      • Mortgage specialists reduce their lending fees, and the average amount is $500
      • Title company specialists reduce their title service fees, and the average amount is $150
      • Home inspection specialists reduce their service fees, and the average amount is $50
      • Hero savings through our Friends of Heroes® partners (amounts vary)

      No Red Tape. No Hidden Fees. No Catch. Real Savings.

      Down Payment Assistance Programs and Grants (Federal, State, Local)

      Many hero programs flaunt big savings like ” save up to $10,000″, but these programs are simply promoting local, state and federal down payment assistance and grant programs that are available through any licensed mortgage lender.

      They are a wonderful benefit if you qualify, but they’re only available to those who meet a specific set of qualification criteria.

      HOWEVER – If you DO qualify for one of the down payment assistance or grant programs, AND you work with Homes for Heroes to close on a home, you get those savings PLUS the hero savings we offer (some local, state or federal programs may have restrictions).

      Bottom line, we look to maximize your savings. That’s why our local specialists are special, and that’s how we save you more money than anybody else claiming to offer hero savings. The great service we provide is standard procedure because you do not deserve anything less.

      You Give Us the Ability to Help Heroes in Need

      When you buy or sell a home using our local real estate specialists, Homes for Heroes donates a portion of its earnings to the Homes for Heroes Foundation.

      The Homes for Heroes Foundation then awards hero grants to nonprofit organizations who assist heroes in need. These hero grants are possible because you and many other heroes choose to use our local specialists to buy and sell a home; adding even more good feelings to closing on your home!
