  1. 1

    Send Your Documents

    Send your documents. We give you a clear list of the documents lenders require, and your project manager uploads them.

  2. 2

    Get the First Read

    Within 48 hours, we provide your first determination — an early read on any eligibility issues lenders may flag.

  3. 3

    Review the Gaps

    We walk your board and manager through the initial gaps in eligibility and identify missing documentation or information.

  4. 4

    Get the Plan

    We provide a clear, board-ready action plan outlining everything required to restore eligibility.

  5. 5

    Stay Eligible

    We stay engaged to monitor changes to budgets, insurance, and board decisions and advise your board to maintain ongoing eligibility.

First Read Notice

The first read is an initial determination. Completing a full eligibility determination may require additional documentation or information and, when appropriate, a site visit.

What We Review

We base our review on the same project-level documentation and criteria lenders use when determining eligibility.

  • Governing Documents
  • Current Board-Approved Budget
  • Year-to-Date Financial Statements
  • Current Reserve Study
  • Inspections Completed in the Last 3 Years
  • Master Property and Liability Insurance
  • Lender Questionnaire

Our Guarantee

If we determine your project meets Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac requirements, and a lender’s review – based on the same documentation we evaluated – comes back differently, we step in and help you resolve it at no charge.

We stand behind our assessments, and we stand with your board.

You’ll never be left holding a certificate that isn’t worth anything.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac rules differ. A project can pass one and fail the other, so you get a separate answer for each.
