Frequently Asked Questions and Tips
Q: What documents will I be asked to upload with the Application?
A: Click here to see the list of application documents.
Q: I think I have finished my application but I don't see how to submit it?
A: The submit button will not appear until you have uploaded all the required documents and entered information in all the sections of the application. If you have red clocks by any section it means you still have documents that you need to upload. If you do not have any debts then you will need to click 'I don't have any debts'.
Q: How do I know that my application has been successfully submitted?
A: After you press the submit button you will be prompted to do the following:
-
Confirm Application Details
-
Agree to Terms
-
Pay Application Fees
-
Electronically Sign
Then, you will receive a confirmation email with the Subject Line: 'Your Homestead Community Land Trust application is complete!' The email will include an attached PDF of your full application.
Q: I verified my email and phone number to login in but I am receiving a spinning house error message and not able access the application.
A: If this happens to you please email olivia@homesteadclt.org for the most immediate assistance. This happens most frequently because there are multiple contact records in the Homestead's database with the same email address you used to login. It can best be avoided by being consistent with the spelling of your name and what email address use in your interactions with Homestead. Do not use the same email address for multiple members of your family, for example - the primary applicant and the co-applicant cannot have the same email address.
Tip: Organize and save all the documents you uploaded into the application in the same place. Mortgage lender's will ask for many of the same documents, having these documents organized already will save you time when applying for a loan.
