First-Home Down Payment Blueprint
Watch your home equity build from couple savings to wedding guest contributions.
Tier: 5% Conventional Unlocked
How wedding gifts push your down payment past critical lending thresholds:
| Lending Milestone | Required Capital | Current Status | PMI Impact |
|---|
Your wedding cash fund covers 38.1% of your total down payment pool. This avoids delay and knocks years off your savings timeline.
Guests love giving when cash is tied to a tangible part of your home. Add these pre-calculated item micro-shares to your Zola, The Knot, or Honeyfund registry:
| Home Goal Item | Unit Value | Suggested Shares | Total Fund Value | Action |
|---|
Etiquette-approved registry descriptions to put your guests at ease when asking for down payment contributions:
"Your presence at our celebration is the greatest gift of all. If you wish to bless us with a wedding gift, we have established a First-Home Down Payment Fund to help lay the foundation for our next chapter. We cannot wait to welcome you into the home you helped build!"
