A little consistency can go a long way.

With home prices and interest rates on the rise, saving for a down payment can feel like an impossible task. Fear not! This Routine enables you to make disciplined and automated contributions to your down payment  Plan. Build toward your biggest goals, one day at a time.

Down Payment Routine

Once you’ve figured out how much to save for your down payment, making consistent contributions into a high-yield down payment Plan is a great way to ensure you move into your new home sooner rather than later.

The first step is to create your down payment Plan and input your goal amount. One of the benefits of using a Plan is that the funds are excluded from your available balance (so that you can’t chip away at them with splurges or unexpected expenses).

How to set up this Routine:

  1. Create a Plan for your Down Payment.
  2. Click 'Try this Routine'
  3. Confirm the date that the Routine will run (the trigger will be pre-populated, but you can edit the date/frequency that the Routine will run).
  4. Determine the amount that will transfer to your Down Payment Plan.
  5. Save your Routine and take one step closer towards your new home!
