Our take
Dubbed 'generation rent', young people are becoming increasingly likely to never own their own home. With high rent prices inhibiting saving for a deposit along with ever inflated house prices caused by limited affordable housing, the rate of home ownership has slumped over the past 20 years.
Gen H aim to be a new type of lender, providing a fully digital mortgage and features including online consultations with mortgage experts. They also provide a platform for home owners to track and manage their housing wealth.
Gen H can also incorporate "investors" into your mortgage. these can be friends or family who can help you out financially, providing a system for you to pay them back with interest on their investment. There is no shortage of potential users for the platform, and so the company has the real chance to expand its operations moving forwards.
