Pure Hearts R Us’ “Wow, I’m Home!” Pre-purchase program starts with a 1-hour consultation that determines where you currently stand for homeownership. During this consultation, a credit report is pulled. This gives us a picture of your spending habits and will tell us whether you can presently qualify for an affordable mortgage. Your credit report will also tell us how the banks will judge your mortgage readiness and creditworthiness.

This initial consultation will help your Pure Hearts R Us counselor design an Action Plan for you. After this consultation, we will know if you are mortgage-ready right now, or whether you will need Pre-purchase counseling to become ready. This first 1-hour consultation session costs $75.00 per person and pulling your credit report will cost $21.00. A total of $96.00.

If your consultation establishes that you ARE ready to buy, your counselor will help you determine the mortgage amount you can comfortably afford, and which loan program will best meet your needs. Also, you will be directed to take the 8-hour Home Buying Educational Certification Course. This can be done at a Pure Hearts R Us in-person group setting, or at your leisure online.

Financial Capability

Pure Hearts R Us is dedicated to bringing financial education to families and individuals that will help them define and then reach their financial goals. This educational service concludes with an individualized Action Plan — a blueprint for success that you and your family can refer to at any time. Your Action Plan is what you and your counselor have designed to illuminate the specific steps toward accomplishing your financial goals. In this goal-achievement process, your counselor will help you identify your spending habits on a monthly basis. With your goals in focus, it will be easy to see what adjustments should and can be made to your monthly budget to accommodate them.

This Financial Capability Service serves as a foundation for Free Financial Life Planning which will fine-tune your action plan with specific strategies for building toward your goals. The financial planning process utilizes a free, comprehensive Financial Needs Analysis that drills down to the best options for achieving such things as sustainable homeownership, college funding for your children, and financial independence in retirement along with any other goals and dreams you may have where financial management comes into play.

Pure Hearts R Us’ Financial Capability Course will be offered online, coming soon.

Business Entrepreneur Opportunities

Pure Hearts R Us knows that it takes earning a certain amount of income to be ready for owning a home. We have debt elimination and credit building tools for helping households stretch the amount of current income available for homeownership, but in many cases that just won’t suffice. More income is needed than what available jobs are offering.

Have you ever thought of starting your own business on the side? Your own business where you’re the boss? That is a dream many of us share. But the cost! Who has the tens to hundreds of thousands it takes to go into business for yourself?

What if it took no more than $300 to start your own business? Or even as little as $100?

Pure Hearts R Us’ Business Entrepreneurial Program is designed to offer education about the required qualities of successful entrepreneurship. But beyond that, we also offer suggestions for actual entrepreneurial opportunities with which we have seen people become financially successful.
