Wyz Q&A

  • GetWyz is a smart home-buying app that helps you understand how much home you can realistically afford and what steps you need to take to become mortgage-ready. Instead of just showing you numbers, GetWyz breaks down your financial picture and gives you personalized, actionable steps—whether you’re months away or just starting to explore. GetWyz will be available on both Apple and Android mid 2026.

  • Yes, GetWyz is completely free to use. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges. Our mission is to empower future homeowners with transparency and tools—not to upsell services.

  • Absolutely. GetWyz takes your data security seriously. We use bank-level encryption and industry-standard privacy protections to ensure your personal and financial information stays safe and secure.

  • Yes! In fact, that’s one of GetWyz’s biggest strengths. If you’re not ready yet, we help you get there by identifying what’s holding you back—like credit, savings, or debt—and give you a roadmap to improve over time.

  • Most home-buying calculators just spit out a number based on some rough assumptions. GetWyz does a whole lot more. Instead of simple math, we dig deep into your financial situation and run thousands of simulations using different strategies to find the best path to your unique HomeOwner Day—the day you can confidently afford a home.

    We then give you a detailed, personalized roadmap to get there—complete with clear, actionable recommendations and a full explanation in your WyzGuide. Home buying can be overwhelming, but we’re here to simplify the process and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

  • GetWyz itself is not a lender—but we do have an affiliate company, GetWyz Mortgage, that can provide a home loan if and when you're ready. There’s absolutely no pressure or obligation to use GetWyz Mortgage—we simply offer it as a convenient option if you want to keep everything in one place. Our main goal is to help you become mortgage-ready and make the best decision for your situation, whether that’s with our affiliate or another lender you trust.

  • We provide in-app guidance every step of the way, including tips, explanations, and alerts to help you stay on track. If you need more help, our support team is just a message away—ready to answer your questions or troubleshoot.

  • GetWyz was founded by Bob Curtis, the visionary behind the groundbreaking MoneyGuidePro financial planning software. With over 30 years of experience in financial services and software development, Bob has long been an innovator in interactive, goal-based financial tools
