Eddie is the co-founder and CEO of Point. The concept for Point’s Home Equity Investment came to Eddie while he was attempting to refinance his home. Like millions of people, Eddie didn’t have any reportable income at the time - even though his startup had been acquired a few weeks prior - so he didn’t qualify for any conventional mortgage product. Recognizing that many other homeowners must find themselves in similar circumstances, Eddie and co-founder Eoin Matthews began working on Point. Point is backed by Andreessen Horowitz, Westcap, Ribbit Capital, Redwood Trust, and Atalaya Capital Management. Before founding Point, Eddie was the co-founder of TrialPay (acquired by Visa), Yub (acquired by Coupons.com), Metails (acquired by Buy.com), and TXN (acquired by Envestnet). Eddie holds an AB in Computer Science from Harvard University. He lives in Menlo Park with his wife and four sons, proudly supporting the Golden State Warriors.

Eoin is the co-founder and Chief Business Officer at Point. His interest in home finance was born in 2011 when he invested in the down-payment funds for his friends, Jonny and Francesca, to buy their first home outside of Boston. When they sold the house in 2014 and the investment was paid off, it cemented his conviction in the potential for shared equity. Prior to Point, Eoin was on the founding team at Sendgrid (acquired by Twilio) and Metails (acquired by Buy.com). He was the VP of Business Development at Rakuten. Eoin holds a Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering from the National University of Ireland, Galway. Eoin lives in the Bay Area with his wife and daughter. Prior to becoming a co-founder at Point and a father, Eoin was enthusiastic about logic games and trail running. A carefree traveler, he has required medical treatment in at least five different countries
