Unison

Unison, based in the US, specializes in providing innovative financial solutions through its Equity Sharing Agreements, allowing homeowners to access their home equity without incurring additional debt. Founded in 2004 in San Francisco, US, Unison focuses on real estate equity exchange. Unison Equity Sharing offers innovative financial solutions centered around home equity through their core product, the Equity Sharing Agreement. This service allows homeowners to access their home equity without taking on additional debt, addressing liquidity challenges for individuals wishing to utilize their home equity for personal or investment purposes. The Equity Sharing Agreement enables Unison to partner with homeowners, providing them with a cash payment in exchange for a share of the future appreciation of their property. This model primarily targets homeowners in the US, especially in high-value markets like California, Texas, and New York. Unison's revenue is generated primarily from its Equity Sharing Agreements, wherein the company invests in a homeowner's property and benefits from appreciation during a specified holding period. This transaction structure is characterized as a direct-to-consumer model, where homeowners enter contracts that outline equity contributions and profit-sharing terms upon sale or refinancing of their property. Revenue is realized upon the exit of these agreements, typically through property sales or at the end of the agreement term, allowing Unison to capture a portion of the home’s increased value. The company is focused on expanding its offerings into additional markets and regions, although specific target areas have not been disclosed.
