I would recommend this company to anyone that is looking for a resolution to your financial situation. We had a lot of equity and we wanted to do upgrades to our home. This is a wonderful way to financially achieve our goals.

Point helped me get a portion of my equity when I needed it most. Otherwise it would've been hard to get it through conventional ways. Point relieved the pressure on my debt, emotional and mental health.

Being a retired senior citizen was no problem for Point. The necessary funds received have alleviated much stress in accessing the equity in my home.

Becoming Point

The inspiration

The members of Point’s founding team are inspired by their own interactions with traditional home equity financing.

Eddie Lim, between successful startups, is looking for some liquidity while deciding on his next venture. His bank rejects his application for a HELOC due to a lack of conventional W2 income. 

Meanwhile, Eoin Matthews receives a proposition from some friends who are trying to purchase their dream home in Boston, but don’t have enough for the down payment – would he consider investing in their home in exchange for a share of the future appreciation?

Series A

Point raises a $9.1M Series A led by Andreessen Horowitz. At the time of funding, the tiny (but mighty) team has just seven employees!
Eddie Lim, Eoin Matthews, and Alex Rampell come together to create Point, a home equity platform. Point’s flagship product, the HEI (Home Equity Investment), empowers homeowners to unlock their equity when they need it most.

Series B

Point raises a $42M Series B led by Prudential Financial and DAG Ventures.
With headcount passing 30, Point outgrows their first office, and moves into a new space, which has housed a number of startups over the years, in Palo Alto, CA.

The team grows to over 50 people, and Point funds its 1,000th homeowner!

Securitization

The new asset class has officially arrived.
Point, with partner Redwood Trust and underwriter Nomura, complete the industry’s first securitization backed entirely by Home Equity Investments. Point also announces over $1B in capital commitments from financial institutions buying the HEI.

Series C

Point raises a $120M Series C led by WestCap. Point funds its 5,000th customer in February.
Point funds its 10,000th homeowner and surpasses $1B in Home Equity Investment originations. DBRS Morningstar creates a rating methodology for HEIs, and Point and Redwood Trust complete a $139M rated securitization, opening HEI access to a new class of investors.

$2B in fundings

Since its founding, Point has now empowered over 20,000 homeowners by unlocking more than $2 billion in Home Equity Investment originations.

This momentum is driven by continued growth across the company, including the expansion of our team to more than 300 employees, multiple securitizations, and new capital commitments from investors.

Point closes on $115M to give homeowners a way to cash out on equity in their homes
Historically, homeowners could only tap into the equity of their homes by taking out a home equity loan or refinancing. But a new category of startups has emerged in recent years to give homeowners more options to cash in on their homes in exchange for a share of the future value of their homes.
