Used only for internal affordability and consistency calculations. These values are not independently verified by a third party in the current workflow.

Important: Internal estimates are informational planning results generated from applicant-entered data and ELIT local rules. They are not lender offers, pre-approvals, underwriting decisions, or guarantees of credit. The one-time ELIT service fee is charged through Square only when you select an estimate and continue.
Privacy noticeNo external AutoFi, Carapis, InformedIQ, RateAPI or Capital One credential is required by the active workflow. Applicant data remains within the ELIT/WordPress workflow except for the information required by Square to process payment.
