Inman Recognizes Unison CEO with 2025 Best of Finance Award

Starting or growing a business takes more than just a great idea. It takes capital! And while “small business loan” is often the first thing you’ll search, it’s important to know that it’s not a single type of loan.

Many homeowners are turning to Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) as a practical and compassionate solution. ADUs provide a balance of independence and proximity, allowing aging parents to stay close to family while enjoying their own private space.

Major expenses can require major funding. And if you’re a homeowner with equity, a HELOC or home equity loan can unlock access to cash at rates typically lower than credit cards or personal loans.

Understanding liens as a standard part of home financing can help you approach the situation with confidence rather than worry.

If you own a home, chances are you’ve been building equity for years. Possibly without even thinking about it! Each mortgage payment and uptick in property value quietly adds to your net worth.

With today’s high housing prices, rising interest rates, and down payment challenges, even well-intentioned parents may find it hard to provide financial help without putting strain on their own finances.
