LOS ANGELES - s4story -- HomeIQ Academy, a new buyer education platform built for real estate agents, officially launched today. The platform addresses one of the industry's most persistent problems: deals that fall apart because buyers aren't financially prepared.

HomeIQ Academy gives agents a turnkey system to educate buyers before the first showing. Agents invite buyers through a simple magic link. From there, buyers receive a 90-day daily article drip covering credit, debt-to-income ratios, down payments, loan programs, and the full homebuying process — along with six interactive financial simulators and a personalized Buyer Readiness Score from 0 to 100.

"Most first-time buyers don't fail because they can't qualify. They fail because nobody taught them how to get ready," said Jumaane Bey, founder of HomeIQ Academy. "Agents spend hours explaining credit scores and closing costs to buyers who aren't there yet. We built a system that handles the education so agents can focus on what they do best — closing."
