Colorado-based digital mortgage lender Neat Loans wants your business—preferably vaccinated.
According to a company announcement, Neat Loans has begun offering $500 discounts to loan applicants (residential purchase or refi) who have received a COVID vaccine. Additionally, the company says it will assist applicants who are unvaccinated but interested in getting access to the vaccine.
The discounted offer on closing costs is also available to unvaccinated borrowers who can’t get vaccinated due to a health condition or their religious beliefs.
“Neat believes that vaccinated individuals are making a crucial impact on the wellbeing of our community,” Luke Johnson, CEO of parent company Neat Capital, said via press release. “Mortgage lenders need to have important conversations with their clients about the home-buying process and their vaccine status as it relates to employment. This is partly due to responsible companies requiring employees be vaccinated to keep workplaces safe, and employment status is critical when trying to fund a home loan.”
