We get it

Buying a home in the Seattle area is hard.

Home prices across the Seattle region put ownership out of reach for a lot of people who are doing everything right. Steady income, good credit, and still the upfront costs of closing can feel impossible.

We're here to ease that pain. Wayfinder puts real money toward your closing, fights for seller credits on your behalf, and guides you through every step so the last stretch doesn't stop you.

Who it's for

Wayfinder is for you if…

Your income is steady, but savings for closing costs is the gap
You're a first-time buyer, or it's been years since you owned
You're tired of rent going up with nothing to show for it
Surprise repairs after move-in are what keep you up at night

What it can mean for you

You may be closer than you think

Wayfinder's credit and seller-credit negotiation work together to shrink what you bring to closing.

An example

On a $950,000 home, 1% is up to

$9,500

back toward your closing costs. Then we negotiate seller credits to close the rest of the gap or buy down your rate.

Questions

Good questions to ask

Who qualifies for Wayfinder?

Buyers purchasing a home in [YOUR SERVICE AREA] who work with Bryce Greenleaf, Real Broker LLC, as their buyer's agent. [ADD ANY PRICE, LOAN OR FIRST-TIME BUYER REQUIREMENTS.]

Is the 1% credit cash in my pocket?

It's a credit applied at closing toward your allowable closing costs, like lender fees, prepaid taxes and insurance. It must be approved by your lender and disclosed in your purchase agreement, and it can't exceed your actual closing costs.

How do seller credits work?

As part of your offer, we can ask the seller to contribute toward your closing costs or pay to buy down your interest rate. How much depends on the market, the home and the seller, and loan programs limit how much a seller can contribute.

Can I combine Wayfinder with down payment assistance?

Often, yes. Many state and local programs can be used alongside our credit, depending on each program's rules. Our trusted lender can match you with the local programs you may qualify for.

What does the home warranty cover?

A 1-year plan from First American Home Warranty, provided by Bryce Greenleaf, that covers major home systems and appliances. Coverage terms and exclusions apply, and we'll give you the full plan details before closing.
