Can I finance design choices through my home loan?

Let’s get to the good stuff, personalizing your new home at the KB Home Design Studio. You’ll be happy to know that your KBHS loan officer works directly with your sales counselor upfront to help you plan ahead and prequalify. That way, an estimate of Studio options and floor plan preferences can be included in your mortgage.

How do I decide what loan is best?

KBHS Home Loans has hundreds of loan programs (yes, that seems like a lot), but they are solely focused on helping you find a loan that works best for your unique financial situation. They offer competitive rates and exceptional service on conventional, government (FHA, VA and USDA) and jumbo fixed- and adjustable-rate mortgages. Your dedicated loan officer understands that the loan process can be intimidating. That’s why they take a thoughtful, thorough approach to educate you, and to explain the different scenarios that can help you achieve your short-term and long-term financial goals.

There are many factors to consider. How long do you anticipate living in your new home? How much of a down payment can you comfortably afford? What is your desired price range? These important questions help determine your financial capabilities and provide direction for your loan. The result? Finding a mortgage for your new KB home that accommodates your family’s personal budget, lifestyle and goals.

What is a hybrid closing?

Hybrid closings are available on most of our loan programs, and give you the convenience to securely review and electronically sign (e-Sign) documents from the comfort of home. Every KBHS Home Loans borrower has the flexibility of hybrid closing technology, which significantly reduces your time spent at the signing table. In fact, this process is so streamlined and efficient, it can take just 15 minutes when everything is good to go.

Of course, there are some critical documents that must be signed in the presence of a notary. This part of the process can also be accomplished from home, because KBHS Home Loans will send a mobile notary to your requested location.

Buying a new home is the largest financial commitment you will make in your lifetime. KBHS Home Loans is there to help you feel confident and informed, every step of the way.
