March Madness: The Final Four Cs

While much of the country has spent the last week fixated on brackets, a different kind of madness has taken over the housing industry – the start of Spring Homebuying Season. As brackets are busted, buzzers are beaten, and champions are crowned during the NCAA Final Four in Minneapolis, we'll be hard at work making sure you're ready to purchase a home.

Forget about the FINAL FOUR, we're here to tell you about the FOUR Cs. When lenders decide whether you qualify for a loan, they evaluate the four Cs – Capacity, Capital, Collateral and Credit. Think you know your stuff? Take this quiz and prove you're prime-time player.
