How the Money Finder Works

A guided process that compares your answers to the published rules of Texas homebuyer assistance programs.

You Tell Us Where and How You Plan to Buy

You Tell Us Where and How You Plan to Buy

We ask about your target city, county, household size, income range, credit estimate, and what kind of help you need. Everything is a range or estimate. No exact numbers, no Social Security number, no credit check.

We Compare Your Answers to Program Rules

We Compare Your Answers to Program Rules

Our tool checks your estimates against the published eligibility rules of dozens of catalogued programs — statewide (TSAHC, TDHCA, SETH, HAT), city and county programs (Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Fort Worth, and more), federal pathways (VA, USDA, FHA), veteran and profession-based programs, and lender grant programs. We use the same publicly available rules that a housing counselor would review with you.

You Get Possible Matches and Next Steps

Results show which programs may apply, what they offer, why they matched, what you need to verify, and a link to the official source. Every result includes a last-verified date and a recommended next step. Contact information is optional and only requested after you see your results.
