Hometap

Provides cash for home equity access

About Hometap

Hometap provides homeowners with a way to access their home equity without selling their property or incurring additional debt. The company offers a lump sum of cash in exchange for a share of the future value of the home, allowing homeowners to unlock up to $600,000 of their equity without monthly payments or interest. Hometap earns revenue by sharing in the appreciation of the home's value when it is sold or when the homeowner repurchases Hometap's share. This approach sets Hometap apart from traditional home equity loans, as it offers a flexible and debt-free solution. The company's goal is to simplify the financial process for homeowners, helping them achieve their financial objectives, such as paying off debt or funding education, while maintaining a high level of customer service.
