The Doorly Process

From Application to Keys—All in One Place

Buying a home with Doorly is simple. We handle the complexity behind the scenes so you can focus on choosing the right home.


🧾 1. Apply in Minutes

Start by completing your application directly in the Doorly app.

We’ll ask for:

  • basic personal information

  • income details

  • the areas you want to buy in

You’ll also securely connect your financial accounts (or upload documents manually) so we can verify your income and assets quickly. Most applications take just a few minutes.


✅ 2. Get Approved

Our team reviews your application using our flexible underwriting process designed for modern buyers—including self-employed and non-traditional income.

You’ll receive:

  • your approved purchase price

  • loan options

  • next steps

Many buyers receive a decision the same day.


🏡 3. Find Your Home

Once approved, you can browse homes directly in the Doorly app.

  • All active listings are available. If it's active on Zillow and within your approved purchase price, it's available in our app!

  • Filter by your budget and preferences

  • Save and compare homes

When you find the right one, you simply select it—we handle the rest.


✍️ 4. We Submit the Offer

Doorly acts as the buyer and submits a strong, cash-backed offer on your behalf.

Because we can:

  • move quickly

  • close fast

  • present as a cash buyer

This gives us stronger negotiating power when working with sellers.


📄 5. Under Contract

Once your offer is accepted, your home is officially under contract. This begins the option period, where you’ll complete a few key steps:

  • Send your earnest money deposit

  • Order your appraisal

  • Schedule and complete your inspection

  • Review your official loan terms

We guide you through each step directly in your dashboard.


🔍 6. Inspection & Appraisal

During the option period:

  • Inspection helps identify any issues with the home that were not disclosed

  • Appraisal confirms the home’s value

After reviewing everything, you’ll decide whether to move forward.


📊 7. Review Your Loan Terms

You’ll receive your official Loan Estimate, which outlines:

  • your interest rate

  • monthly payment

  • total costs

Everything is clearly disclosed before you proceed.


🏁 8. Closing—All in One Day

Here’s where Doorly is different.

We:

  1. Purchase the home directly using our funding

  2. Immediately resell it to you

Both transactions happen the same day. This allows you to:

  • avoid traditional lender delays

  • move faster

  • close with confidence


🔑 9. Get Your Keys

Once closing is complete:

  • ownership transfers to you

  • you receive your keys

  • you officially move into your new home
