This measures how ready you are, not when you plan to buy. You picked your own timeline in the quiz. This is what your money and credit say is possible.
Send Me My Ready Now BonusRealistic path from where you are to keys in your hand: 30 to 60 days. The work ahead isn't about getting ready, it's about not screwing up the last 5%.
Reality check
Where Ready Now buyers actually lose deals
You've done the work. Now don't fumble the last 5%.
Your pre-approval has an expiration date. Every week without a contract, rates move, prices shift, and your locked terms get worse.
Buy a couch on store credit. Open a new card. Switch jobs. Any one of those can blow your DTI and kill the loan at underwriting.
The contract you sign decides whether you walk clean from a bad inspection or eat $8K to fix what should be the seller's problem.

90-Day Sprint
You're more ready than you think.
Your money's ahead of your timeline.

This measures how ready you are, not when you plan to buy. You picked your own timeline in the quiz. This is what your money and credit say is possible.
Send Me My 90-Day Sprint BonusYou're realistically 60 to 120 days away from a strong, competitive offer on your first Orlando home. The next 90 days are the whole game.
Reality check
Why 90 days isn't what you think it is
The runway feels longer than it is. Here's what eats the time.
The lender takes 30 to 45 of those days for underwriting and closing. Your real shopping window is 6 to 8 weeks.
Most buyers burn the first month scrolling Zillow. By the time they get serious, rates have shifted and the listings they wanted are pending.
The new-build vs resale math (incentives, rate buy-downs, HOA escalators) hides $15K to $25K. Almost nobody runs it.

Foundation Phase
The foundation comes first.
The work pays off. Let's build the base.

This measures how ready you are, not when you plan to buy. You picked your own timeline in the quiz. This is what your money and credit say is possible.
Send Me My Foundation Phase BonusIf you want to buy soon, plan on 6 to 12 months of focused foundation work before you start looking at homes. Most of it is stuff you control without spending a dollar.
Reality check
Where Foundation Phase buyers waste the runway
Time is on your side. Until the wrong moves use it up.
You'll Google how to improve your credit. 80% of the advice you'll find actively hurts the FICO score lenders actually use.
You'll save for a down payment. The account it sits in (and how the deposits land) decides whether the lender even counts it toward closing.
You'll visit open houses for fun. Every showing without a strategy teaches habits that cost real money when it's your turn to make an offer.
