Unison Launches Innovative Equity Sharing Home Loan to Convert Home Equity Into Cash

Unison, recognizing the important contributions that the “Wired Differently" series brings to the fintech community, has agreed to partner with Innovate Finance to discuss its socially impactful efforts to help homeowners in the U.S. become financially independent by unlocking the wealth trapped in their homes.

VIU by HUB (VIU), a digital insurance brokerage platform, today announced a partnership with Unison, a home equity sharing company, to provide homeowners with the opportunity to compare insurance coverage quotes across carriers and receive trusted advice along the way.

We’ve long considered ourselves privileged to empower homeowners to achieve financial freedom and wellbeing by helping them tap into their home equity.

The home remains the largest asset for most of us, and is one of the most straightforward ways to grow wealth. But it can be difficult to realize that wealth and turn it into a liquid asset you can actually use!

When we see natural disasters on the news, we see numbers–property damages, loss of life, displaced peoples. What are the long-term effects on home values and demographics, though?

Unison is thrilled to announce that they partnered with their 10,000th homeowner, crossing a significant milestone in their quest to empower homeowners to access their equity. The trailblazing fintech offers residential equity sharing agreements to homeowners in 30 states, in which they receive up to 17.5% of their home’s current value in exchange for a share in the home’s future change in value. The best part? Homeowners do not acquire debt–Unison neither demands monthly payments nor applies interest during the length of the agreement.
