• va_remaining_entitlement

  For a Hawaii county, compute remaining VA entitlement, the max $0-down loan, and the 25% down payment on any amount above that. $0 already in use is treated as full entitlement (no county cap). Read-only.

  Compare 2 to 4 loan scenarios (type, rate, down payment, term, discount points) on one purchase price. Returns payment, an illustrative cash-to-close, and total interest. Read-only. Rates are examples.

• calculate_buydown

  Year-by-year principal-and-interest and subsidy cost for a 2-1, 1-0, or 3-2-1 temporary buydown, or the upfront cost of permanent discount points. Read-only. The note rate is an example, not a quote.

• rent_vs_buy

  Compare cumulative rent with the net cost of buying over a holding period, using Honolulu's 0.35% tax default unless you override it. Read-only. Not a price or rent forecast.

• lookup_va_condo

  Check whether an Oahu condo project is on the VA's accepted condo list, by project name (fuzzy), building address, or VA condo ID. Returns status, VA ID, the data date, and the VA's official lookup link to verify. Oahu only for now. Read-only. Do not send a unit number or personal information. VA approval status does not guarantee loan approval.
