Point is different.
We pay you today for a share of your home’s future appreciation. There are no monthly payments; there is no interest rate; you can buy Point out or sell the home at any time; we can lose money if the home depreciates. We do well when you do well. Now, that’s quite revolutionary.

You might be wondering, what are home equity loans and HELOCs anyways?
Also called second mortgages, a home equity loan is a loan that is secured by your property — you borrow a lump sum and repay it with interest over the term of the loan. HELOCs are lines of credit secured by your home — you can borrow as much as you want up to the HELOC limit.
Is Point A HELOC?
Point is very different from a HELOC. Point is not a loan and it has no monthly payment. We’re invested in your property with you and we share in the home’s appreciation when you decide to sell the home or to buy out Point. In other words, we do well when you do well.
How To Compare Point With A HELOC
Unlike HELOCs, Point does not have an interest rate. Point’s total cost depends on how your home’s value changes. You should compare the total costs under different home appreciation scenarios.
What Does It Cost?
HELOCs have fixed or variable interest rates and you will pay interest every month. Point does not have an interest rate or monthly payments. Point makes money when your home appreciates.
Here’s what the press have been saying about us.
“If Point takes off, we could have a more liquid housing market, where risk and debt are spread around, rather than so concentrated.”
