Homeowners

HOMEOWNERS/HOA

Homeownership is one of life's most important decisions and often your family's single largest asset.  How can you protect your home equity when unseen or unexpected circumstances threaten to jeopardize your investment?  What happens if your neighborhood becomes unsightly due to neighbors who aren't properly maintaining their homes, or you experience a financial or health issue which requires you quickly liquidate the equity in your home?

HOPP (Homeowner’s Protection Program)

Homeowners and HOAs who join HOPP can protect the value of their home, while maintaining the comparable value and desirability of the community.  HOPP strengthens homeowner balance sheet and helps reduce distressed sales that adversely impact property values.  Here’s how:

  • HOPP offers HOA Homeowners to sell their home at any time, for any reason, hassle free.

  • HOPP will provide the homeowner with an offer to buy their house at current fair market value in 24 hours!

  • Homeowners can always hire a Realtor and HOPP will pay $2,500 more than the price obtained by your Realtor and ensure Realtors receive any agreed upon Commission, to be paid from Seller’s proceeds.

  • HOPP will pay $1,000 to prospective homebuyers, if their offer is beaten.

  • In addition, this program offers HOA homeowners the ability to monetize equity in their home, if they need it, without more monthly payments. This provides financial security when faced with an unforeseen crisis…job loss, illness, etc., or can even be used when they’d like to make home improvements – all without adding new monthly payments.
