Unlike traditional home sales, where you can miss out on your dream home while waiting for your current house to sell, the "KNOCK" Program lets you do a "home swap" and gets you out of your current home and into your new home first:
First you speak with one of the programs loan acquisition team members and they help to get you fully underwritten for a new home loan including down payment advance so you can start making offers fast.
Next, we go out house hunting and have you put down a winning offer on your dream home and move in right away. You only pay your new mortgage, while we cover your current mortgage.
Last, you have the program pre-pay up to $35,000 towards renovations/repairs to get your current home ready for listing on the open market so it sells fast for top dollar. And then the process is complete!

you find and finance a new home, to covering home prep costs so you can
sell your old house for the best price. 
How much does it cost?
With the KNOCK Home Swap™ Program, you purchase your new home before you sell your old house. When you close on your new home, you’ll pay a 2.00% convenience fee (unless you opt to roll this into your mortgage) in addition to regular closing costs. Typically, closing costs include but are not limited to: attorney and escrow fees, lender fees, taxes, insurance, title. You will also pay real estate commissions which will be determined by you and your agent.
When your listing sells, you’ll simply pay us back for monies the lender advanced to you during the "home swap" process, such as:
With the KNOCK Home Swap™ Program , you are provided the resources necessary to seamlessly buy your new home and sell your old one. Here’s how it works:
With the KNOCK Home Swap™ Program, you only have one mortgage payment. You’ll pay the mortgage on your new home, immediately building equity, while the lender helps cover your monthly mortgage payments on your old house, as agreed to in your contracts.
What happens if my house doesn’t sell in 6 months?
Before you buy your new house, the lender will issue a backup offer on your old house that goes into effect after 6 months, so you can rest easy knowing that you are covered—no matter what.
How does the mortgage pre-approval process work?
With the KNOCK Home Swap™ Program, participating clients are pre-approved through the underwriting department of the programs lending department prior to finding their new home. This allows Buyers to close faster than traditional mortgage lenders. The Lenders Representative will review the financial information you share with them to let you know exactly how much house you can afford. Most lenders wait to do this until your new house is under contract; but in this case, they do it in advance to give you more buying power so there aren’t any special conditions attached to your offer.
