AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Calque, the leader in empowering established lenders to offer non-contingent mortgages, today announced a partnership with Revest Homes. Borrowers will be able to access their existing equity before they sell. This serves two purposes, the funds to repair their current home and make a significant down payment on the purchase of their next home.
Calque is leading the mortgage innovation space with The Trade-In Mortgage™, designed for homeowners to retain wealth by transferring their equity from one property to another. Using The Trade-In Mortgage, a homebuyer can make a non-contingent offer that is as good as cash and backed by a purchase price guarantee from Calque; if the home doesn’t sell within 90 to 150 days, depending on the market, Calque will purchase it. The Trade-In Mortgage allows more homebuyers to compete with cash buyers and reassure anxious sellers in a market where interest rates rise so quickly that “cash is king” during the purchase-offer process. It also ensures that homebuyers do not have to carry two mortgages indefinitely.
“Revest Homes identified Calque as a key differentiator in the mortgage market right now,” said Ace Estess Woods, co-founder and director of real estate at Revest Homes. “With home equity at a record high for many owners across the country, we were looking for a solution like The Trade-In Mortgage. Working together, we allow homeowners to leverage their accumulated equity for a down payment on their next home before selling their existing one.”
Revest Homes is different from other lenders. They are a full-service company that handles the entire transaction for the consumer from start to finish. Revest has real estate, renovation and lending professionals that can prepare a property for sale, locate the next property to buy, and make a mortgage loan available, if necessary.
“Calque is proud to partner with Revest Homes,” said Dan Mugge, COO at Calque. “We were looking for a partner that understood how important The Trade-In Mortgage was to consumers who want or need to move but are hesitant due to the risks associated with trying to time the sale of one home and the purchase of another in this market. Their services, combined with our flexible lending products, will greatly improve the homebuying experience for consumers with sizable equity.”
