Real Stories from Nurses Who Found a Home with Nurse Next Door®
Turning the dream of homeownership into reality is possible—even for busy nurses. With the Nurse Next Door Program, healthcare professionals across the country are discovering how grants, down payment assistance, and personalized guidance can make buying a home more affordable and far less stressful.
This month, we’re highlighting three inspiring stories from nurses who used the program to overcome challenges and purchase a home they love.
So Grateful!
Nurse Next Door Realtor: Justin Allen
Nurse Next Door Loan Officer: Alexander Ekeinde
Alexander was very responsive and able to help me close a week early. Along the way, he helped me consider several properties by offering estimates to help me meet my goals. The market where I purchased my home was very challenging and he was able to make it happen for me despite it all. I'm so grateful and would recommend him again.”

California Dream!
Nurse Next Door Realtor: Jess Peternelll
Nurse Next Door Loan Officer: Kelly Hughes
Jess was extremely professional and patient during a very stressful time. He took the time to figure out a way to make our first home in California a dream come true. He remained available during the entire process, honest, trustworthy and answered all of our questions without making us feel unknowledgeable. This seems to be a rarity in today's world and we are very grateful.
