Unexpected Assessment?

"Hometap's process was very streamlined and simple to understand. It made accessing our equity easy without jumping through hoops. We can pay off all debts and upgrade our home while adding more equity value, making this a double win. Our investment manager was extremely personable, his service was invaluable. We think more people need to look into this option for themselves. They'll be happy they did."

FAQs

What exactly is a home equity investment?

Who can use a Hometap HEI?

Because there are a lot of factors that go into determining if Hometap can make an Investment in a property, there isn't a black-and-white list of criteria. Each property is evaluated independently. That's why we suggest you start an Investment Estimate so that our Investment Managers have the information they need to speak with you about your specific scenario. Here are some of the qualities that tend to make for a good fit:

Your home is located in a state in which we're currently operational. We currently invest in single-family homes, condos, vacation and rental properties, multi-family homes (1-4 units), and manufactured homes
We have a minimum FICO requirement of 500, though most homeowners we work with tend to have a score of 600+
You have a minimum of 25% equity in your home
The Investment amount you're looking for is 25% or less of your total home value, or under $600,000 (this is the maximum amount that we can invest, and it will depend on home value and equity percentage, as well)

The more you know about your home equity, the better decisions you can make about what to do with it. Do you know how much equity you have in your home? The Home Equity Dashboard makes it easy to find out.

Home equity investments from Hometap provide a way for homeowners to be paid today for equity they've accumulated in their property — without a loan. We invest alongside homeowners, providing cash today in exchange for a share in the home's future value. Homeowners can settle the Investment any time within 10 years, and the funds can be used for just about anything.
