AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--C2 Financial, a leading mortgage broker, is working with Calque to launch C2 Buy Before You Sell across the country. With this new program, C2 Financial enables individuals to leverage their home equity for a new purchase prior to selling their current home. This unique approach provides convenience and benefits for house hunters who are homeowners to tap their current home equity to make same-as-cash offers on their next property.
The mortgage industry has recently been characterized by high-interest rates and competitive bidding wars for properties. Many residential purchasers are disadvantaged by investors and large real estate entities who can make all-cash offers. Through its relationship with Calque, C2 Financial allows homeowners to better compete with all-cash offers while avoiding some of the pitfalls associated with traditional bridge loans or moving out before selling their current home.
While bridge loans have historically been used to solve the problem of trapped equity for borrowers, most Americans cannot qualify for two mortgages and a bridge loan at once; others fear balloon payments that come due with certain types of bridge loans, whether or not their house has sold. C2 Buy Before You Sell fixes both of these problems.
With C2 Buy Before You Sell buyers can qualify for their next home without including their existing home or a new second lien on that home in their debt-to-income ratio, resulting in potentially better terms for their new loan. Furthermore, because Calque provides a binding backup contract on the borrower’s home, there is a date by which the house is guaranteed to sell.
“We decided to partner with Calque to offer a safer, better ‘buy before you sell’ solution for our customers,” said C2 Financial Founder and CEO David Temko. “Our mortgage expertise and the guaranteed backup offer from Calque empowers homebuyers to purchase their dream homes with much less stress.”
“This collaboration with C2 Financial is an ideal match for our company,” said Jeremy Foster, founder and chairman at Calque. “The ability to work with a leading mortgage provider like C2 Financial lets us get more qualified buyers into their next home and open up inventory for the move-up buyer.”
