*1% off Interest Rate Incentive provides a 1% discount off the current interest rate offered by First Equity Mortgage, Incorporated on a standard 30-year fixed-rate conventional loan after all required adjustments for any loan level, credit score, loan-to-value, or other factors (known as the “Adjusted Base Rate”) calculated at the time the buyer initially locks their interest rate. Incentive is valid only on firm, non-contingent purchase agreements for owner-occupied, build-to-order single family homes accepted by Drees Homes between September 1 - 30, 2025, when the buyer finances with First Equity Mortgage, Incorporated. To qualify, buyer must select a 30-year fixed-rate conventional loan with a down payment of 10% or more of the home's purchase price. Buyers will lock their rate between 60 and 15 days before closing. The 1% rate reduction is based on the seller paying the incentive in an amount equal to the discount points required to reduce the Adjusted Base Rate by 1%, calculated at the time that the Buyer initially locks their interest rate. Buyers must apply all seller incentives toward discount points to buy down the interest rate. The incentive will not exceed 4.00% of the total purchase price of the home even if this amount does not ultimately result in an interest rate reduction of 1% below the Adjusted Base Rate. Incentive applies to select Drees communities only. This incentive may not be combined with any other Drees incentive or discounts, unless otherwise noted. See a Drees Market Manager for more details.
