- Access to partners and resources to support your renovation lending business. This includes customizable marketing materials, signage, visualization technology tools, and other services available through our partners. There are also organizational forms and checklists that can be downloaded and customized, as well as logos and an easily customizable PowerPoint presentation that presents the FHA 203k and REbuildUSA story for your use in either one-on-one or in group presentations.
- You'll be featured in our Approved Lender Searchable Database in the Membership Center, allowing our real estate agent members in your area to locate you and make the connection to bring you their home purchase/renovation loan deals.
- You'll be eligible to receive FREE LEADS that come through the REbuildUSA website from consumers seeking either a purchase or refinance renovation loan.
-
Access to the exclusive REbuildUSA Project Portal, an online technology platform. With your customers' permission, you can quickly and easily submit project information to connect them with Lowe's and our national network of licensed contractors to help them most quickly finalize the scope of work and package renovation cost documentation for closing. At the same time, the Project Portal can also send information to our partner Pillar To Post to quickly initiate a professional home inspection for your clients as well.
-
Use of the REbuildUSA Project Portal also limits your liability by offering a solution to introduce customers to contractors while maintaining an "arm's length" distance as required by the FHA. It's important to avoid any referral relationships that can be perceived as either "identity of interest" or "conflict of interest" to meet FHA loan endorsement regulations.
-
The ability to interact with other members in the discussion forums and share comments in the blog areas. This allows you to share your expertise and connect with real estate professional members to establish relationships and build business.
-
As you identify yourself as a member of REbuildUSA in your business and marketing efforts, you can make a more powerful connection to the many consumers, real estate brokers and agents who participate in the program. This opportunity is driven not only through promotion by Lowe's, but also directly through the major real estate franchise brands such as RE/MAX, Realogy, Prudential, Keller Williams, EXIT Realty and large independent brokers NRT, HomeServices, etc. REbuildUSA and Lowe's are building awareness at major national conventions and events, publications, radio, through online marketing and live REbuildUSA events presented in major markets from coast to coast.
-
Approved Lenders are invited to participate as sponsors in these live REbuildUSA Roadshow events, offering face-to-face opportunities to build relationships with the real estate community.
-
Consumer marketing initiatives by Lowe's and REbuildUSA will create additional awareness and drive both home purchase and refinance renovation loan business opportunities. Featuring yourself as a REbuildUSA member will allow you to enjoy the benefits of this marketing as well.
