Framework — the #1 Homeownership Education Platform

More than a course, a platform for ongoing support

Framework is more than an online course—it’s a homeownership platform designed to support your clients and your agency for the long haul. With Framework, you get:

  • A complete education ecosystem — from homebuyer readiness through post-purchase success

  • Engagement tools that extend your reach — help clients stay connected to learning and resources after counseling

  • Actionable data and insights — track client progress, outcomes, and community impact with measurable results

Prepare first-time buyers for success

Framework® Homebuyer Education is a HUD-approved course that is accepted by lenders, municipalities, and down payment assistance programs across the country. It helps your clients:

  • Understand the homebuying process from start to finish

  • Make confident, informed financial decisions

  • Qualify for loans, grants, and assistance programs that require HUD-approved education

  • Connect with housing counselors and advisors as part of the learning journey

By offering Framework, your agency ensures every buyer is better prepared to buy a home.

Turn first-time buyers into successful, long-term homeowners

Buying a home is just the beginning. With Framework® Homeownership Essentials, your clients continue to get the guidance they need to thrive with three post-purchase courses:

  • Manage Your Mortgage Like a Pro

  • Home Maintenance 101

  • Home Energy Basics

When your agency provides ongoing education, you reduce foreclosure risk and build stronger, more resilient communities.

  • “Offering homebuyer education and counseling services is important to us at North West Housing Partnership. Our program assists homebuyers better understand their options, avoid scams, and make informed decisions.  Our partnership with Framework allows NWHP to continue our commitment to provide quality homebuyer education and counseling for our clients to obtain access to homeownership.”
