Helping Achieve the American Dream of Homeownership

What is New American Dream?

The New American Dream initiative, established in 2016, combines hard work, integrity, teamwork, and continuous learning to increase the rate of Black homeownership in America.

Our purpose is to provide racial equity and build consumer confidence through homebuying education, accessibility to credit, and mortgage industry career opportunity awareness to Black communities. In fact, New American Funding is one of the top lenders to the Black community.

We're Committed

At New American Funding, we believe in the power of Black Homeownership. We take great pride in creating opportunities for all communities and are dedicated to bridging the racial wealth gap. We believe in serving underserved communities and reducing homeownership disparities. It's why we come to work each day and why we are committed to lending $20 billion in new mortgages to Black borrowers by 2028.

How NAF Makes a Difference

Our vision is to empower the Black community to obtain educational resources, products, services, partnerships, and in-market support to achieve sustainable homebuying and investment purchase goals. Our unique programs include:

• Pathway to Homeownership – Everyone deserves the chance to build wealth by owning their own home. With the Pathway to Homeownership program, first-time homebuyers in select areas may be eligible for up to $8,000* in down payment and closing cost assistance!
• 5-Year Rate Protection Pledge – With our 5-Year Rate Protection Pledge, you may be able to refinance with no repeat lender fees or appraisal fees** if rates drop in the next five years after you lock-in your rate! This gives you peace of mind to know you can purchase your dream home now, and refinance to a lower rate later.
• NAF Cash – NAF Cash, an affiliated company of New American Funding***, can turn you into a cash buyer and put you in a great position to secure your dream home, maybe even for under the asking price. Buying in cash may help you save up to 11% over those using a traditional mortgage****.
