Jameson Community Meridian, ID

If you choose a move-in ready CBH home, you can typically close and get your keys in about 4-6 weeks.* And here’s the part most buyers love: your first mortgage payment usually isn’t due until the first of the month after a full month has passed – so you’ll often have 30-60 days* after move-in before your first payment.

Here’s the timeline at a glance:

Move-in ready homes (most of our inventory): roughly 4-6 weeks from signed contract to keys in hand.

Homes under construction: typically 4-6 months depending on the stage of the build. Your sales team will give you a clear timeline for your specific home and keep you updated along the way.

Your first payment: mortgage payments are made in arrears, meaning you pay for the month you just lived there. Close in mid-July, and your first payment is typically due September 1. That built-in breathing room is perfect for moving costs, new furniture, or just settling in.

*For exact timing on your home, your closing, and your first payment, reach out to your lender – like our preferred lender, Team Mandi powered by Premier Mortgage Resources – and a CBH Sales Specialist.

From tour to keys, our team handles the heavy lifting – that’s the Fast, Easy, Fun way we’ve helped 30,000+ happy homeowners get home.

A 2-1 buydown temporarily lowers your interest rate for year one and year two of your loan – before settling at your fixed rate in year three. The cost of the buydown is paid upfront (often by CBH as part of your incentives*), so you get a lower payment without paying for it yourself.

Here’s an example of how the math works:

Say your current rate is 6.5% on a $400,000 loan.*

EXAMPLE Year 1: You pay at 4.5% – roughly $2,027/mo principal and interest instead of $2,528. That’s about $500/mo back in your pocket every month.*

EXAMPLE Year 2: You pay at 5.5% – roughly $2,271/mo. Still about $257/mo in savings every month.*

EXAMPLE Year 3 and beyond: Your payment moves to the fixed 6.5% note rate – roughly $2,528/mo principal and interest.*

*This is an illustrative example only – your rate, loan amount, and payment will differ. Ask your lender, like our preferred lender, Team Mandi at Premier Mortgage Resources, to run your exact buydown math.

Getting pre-approved is free, takes about 10-15 minutes to apply, and doesn’t commit you to anything. You’ll share some basic financial info with a lender (like Team Mandi at Premier Mortgage Resources, our preferred lending team), and they’ll tell you exactly what you qualify for and what your payment could look like on a new CBH home.

Here’s the whole process:

Apply online or by phone – it’s a short application with Team Mandi at Premier Mortgage Resources.

Share a few documents – typically recent pay stubs, W-2s or tax returns, bank statements, and a photo ID. Self-employed? They’ll walk you through what’s needed.

Get your number – typically within about 24 hours (often same day), you’ll know your approved price range, your loan options, and your estimated monthly payment.

Shop with confidence – your pre-approval letter shows sellers you’re ready, and it locks in your home search to homes you know fit your budget.

Not sure you’d qualify? Apply anyway. Team Mandi works with first-time buyers, self-employed buyers, and buyers rebuilding credit every single day – and if now isn’t the moment, they’ll give you a clear game plan to get there.
