    Overview

    Hometap is a smart new loan alternative for tapping home equity without taking on debt. Homeowners receive debt-free cash by selling a percentage of the equity in their homes to Hometap. They can use the cash for anything, from retiring credit-card debt to starting a business to buying a second home. When the home sells or the homeowner settles the investment, Hometap is paid out an agreed-upon percentage of the sales price or current appraised value.

    Took advantage of a Veteran with a TBI by being vague and quick talking. The contract signed and didn't even get the amount of the person said would be provided. This company is horrible and frankly should be blacklist from working with VA Home Loans, I'll be reaching out to my congressman as well after the elections. Now the Veteran is likely to lose their home because there is no way they can come up with north of $40k if the home goes up in value like it should. ********, this company has no ethics.

    Hi ******, we're sincerely sorry you feel this has been your experience. It's important that homeowners are provided with all of the information of their investment - which your Investment Manager provided you with. In terms of the settlement, we're unsure where you saw this amount. We do offer informational tools on our website to help homeowners estimate settlement costs based on a range of inputs, however, these are only estimates. If you wish to formally request a settlement statements, please contact us, our team is happy to provide you with an accurate settlement statement. Please reach out to ************************************** Thank you!
