What is a deposit on a home?

When purchasing a home, the buyers are required to provide an upfront deposit to the sellers, often 5% of the total purchase price. The deposit is used by the buyer to show the seller that they are committed to making the purchase and has the financial means to close on the property. In hot real estate markets, offering a large home deposit is often a useful negotiating tool as it shows the sellers that the specific buyer is very interested in the property. In today’s market, deposits have become very important but are expensive as housing prices continue to climb year over year. Many existing homeowners are able to leverage existing home equity and acquire a deposit loan to make an offer on a new purchase.

Example of a Deposit Loan:

Mike and Mary have recently sold their house firm with a 90-day closing. Now having the piece of mind about the sale, they are eager to start looking for a new home close to their friends and family. The problem is, they don’t have the funds required to put a deposit down until their sold houses closes some 90 days later.  Mike’s friend suggested they call Tembo Financial as Tembo is able to provide a short-term deposit loan and provide funds within 48 hours with NO appraisals, NO credit checks and NO income verification*. Mike and Mary are able to comfortably search for their new “dream home” and take care of costly moving expenses. Mike and Mary loved the fact that there are no out of pocket expenses as Tembo defers all interest payments on sold homes and simply gets repaid on the closing date*

Types of Deposit Loans

Down Payment Deposit Loans

Perhaps you’ve signed on the bottom line to purchase a new home (congratulations!) but the funds to pay for the new property are still tied up in your old home, which has not yet sold. A deposit loan can provide you with the funds needed to complete the sale on your new property, until the funds from the closing of your current home are available.

Rent Deposit Loans

Prior to renting a property, many landlords require a security deposit, often amounting to the sum of the first and last month’s rent. This deposit serves as an assurance that you will adequately care for the rented property and will keep it in good condition. Should you fail to pay your rent, or incur damages in the rented space, the landlord will keep this security deposit.

In the event that you don’t have enough funds to pay your security deposit in full, a low interest rent deposit loan can help cover this gap until you’re able to pay it back. Rent deposit loans are typically provided to individuals who are currently in the process of selling their current home, and do not yet have access to the funds from the sale.

A Closer Look…

Let’s take an example from Michael and Michelle, who have recently sold their home. Michael and Michelle sold firm on March 5th, but the sale does not close until June 5th. Michael and Michelle would like to buy a new home as soon as possible, but they’re relying on the proceeds of their sale for the deposit to purchase their new home.

In this case, Michael and Michelle could fill out an application for an equity advance with Tembo Financial, who could offer them the short term solution they needed until they received the proceeds from the sale of their home.

By working with Tembo, Michael and Michelle are:

  • Given more flexibility when purchasing their new home
  • Saving the costs of home rentals in the interim period
  • Saving costs associated with moving to/from the rental home
  • Alleviated from the pressure and stress of the waiting period
  • Avoiding a situation whereby they are not able to purchase their dream home due to the constraint of not having money for the deposit
