* No monthly payments during the Investment Period. A Final Settlement Amount based on your home's value at that time is due at the end of the Investment Period or upon sale or refinance.

Why Home Energy Projects Stall

Homeowners want solar, storage, and EV charging. The way the project gets paid for is usually what stops it.

High Monthly Loan Payments

Solar and battery loans can add hundreds of dollars in fixed payments each month, which stops many projects before they start.

Traditional Lending Barriers

Conventional credit and income requirements do not fit every homeowner, even with meaningful home equity built up.

Rising Utility Costs

Waiting means paying more each year as electricity rates climb, without building any energy independence.

Whole-Project Costs

Panels, a battery, and an EV charger together are a significant investment that fixed monthly payments make harder to justify.

Fund the Whole Project With Your Home Equity

You receive investment proceeds today to fund your energy upgrade. The capital provider receives a contractual right to a percentage of your home’s value at settlement, calculated using the Settlement Multiplier in your Agreement.

What the Agreement Provides

  • An upfront payment today in exchange for a contractual right to a percentage of your home’s value at settlement
  • You retain full ownership and control of your home
  • Settlement deferred until sale, refinance, or the end of the Investment Period
  • Homeowner protection cap of no more than 20% annualized

Deferred Settlement

Nothing is due month to month. You settle the agreement by paying the Final Settlement Amount when you sell, refinance, or the term ends.

You Stay on Title

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Home Equity Agreement?

A Home Equity Agreement (HEA) is structured as a purchase of a partial interest in the future value of your home. You receive an upfront payment today in exchange for a contractual right to a percentage of your home’s value at settlement, calculated using the Settlement Multiplier in your Agreement. You retain full ownership and control of your home. A Final Settlement Amount is due at the end of the Investment Period or upon sale or refinance.

How is this different from a HELOC or home equity loan?

A HELOC or home equity loan charges interest and requires a fixed monthly repayment schedule. With a Home Equity Agreement, repayment is deferred: you settle the agreement by paying the Final Settlement Amount, calculated using the Settlement Multiplier applied to your home’s fair market value at that time. The effective cost in high-appreciation markets may exceed a comparable HELOC or home equity loan, so compare both structures for your situation.

How and when do I settle the agreement?

Settlement occurs when you sell your home, refinance, or the Investment Period ends. You settle by paying the Final Settlement Amount, calculated using the Settlement Multiplier applied to your home’s fair market value at that time. To protect homeowners, the maximum cost is subject to a homeowner protection cap of no more than 20% annualized.

What happens at the end of the term if I have not sold or refinanced?

The Final Settlement Amount becomes due at the end of the Investment Period. Homeowners typically settle through savings, a refinance, or the sale of the home. Plan for this obligation before entering an agreement, and consider consulting independent legal and financial advisors.

Am I eligible?

Eligibility is based primarily on your home’s value, location, and your home equity position, along with property and ownership requirements. Each application is evaluated individually. The eligibility check takes about two minutes.

Can I use the proceeds for solar, batteries, and EV charging together?

Yes. Proceeds can fund panels, battery storage, EV charging, electrical upgrades, and related work in one project, or any other purpose. There is no restriction tied to project type.

Power Your Home With the Equity In It

The eligibility check takes about two minutes and does not commit you to an agreement.
