The company’s co-investing platform presents an entirely new way to own a home. Haus invests alongside the owner, and in exchange, homeowners get instant access to their equity and discounted monthly payments. When owners partner with Haus, a customized dashboard tracks the value of their property and allows them to buy more equity anytime or cash out, with funds delivered in days.
“Since we launched our platform last July, the team has been united in our mission to bring flexibility and savings to homeowners with instant access to their equity and lower monthly payments,” said Jonathan McNulty, CEO of Haus. “With what’s happening right now due to COVID-19, people are struggling more than ever. Many have lost their jobs, they’re using up their savings to make their payments. Haus makes the trials of owning a home easier to navigate, and we’re happy that with this investment, we’ll be able to offer relief to additional owners through these uncertain times.” According to McNulty, the new funding round will enable Haus to partner with even more homeowners throughout California, Washington and Oregon.
