You're not starting over. This works alongside the FHA loan you're already getting — for a purchase or a refinance.
Stay on the FHA path you already chose. Hoper isn't a lender and doesn't replace or slow down your loan.

A fully-owned solar system is bundled into your mortgage (allowed under FHA's solar-energy policy). You own it outright — it's what unlocks the benefit.

Because of that structure, eligible participants earn up to 3.5% of the purchase price as 1099 income — yours to keep at closing.
Hoper isn't a one-time check. We pair earned income, education, mentorship, and owned solar into a single program — all built to set you up for long-term financial success, not just a win at the closing table. No gimmicks. Here's exactly where the money comes from.
You buy or refinance with a standard FHA loan — the same path you may already be on.

You go in prepared. We walk you through the numbers, the process, and what to expect before you ever sign.
