Company mission

To make finding the right home financing hassle-free.

Our take

Navigating the complex terrain of purchasing a new home and securing a mortgage often involves confronting a multitude of financial challenges. Homebuyers frequently find themselves resorting to bridge loans, accruing debt to facilitate their move to a new property despite holding equity in their existing home.

Enter Haus, a company that helps customers finance a property purchase by buying into the equity of their existing home. Haus not only provides immediate access to equity for a seamless transition but also offers flexible monthly payment options, diverging from conventional mortgage structures.

Huas claims that its innovative house-financing alternative boasts payment plans that are 30% more affordable than traditional mortgage arrangements. This strategic approach aims to alleviate the financial strain and debt associated with property acquisition, ultimately saving customers money throughout the entire payment process. In essence, Haus is reshaping the landscape of home financing by providing a more economical and stress-free solution for prospective homeowners.
