flag Homeowners are turning to equity-sharing deals to access home value without monthly payments, trading future gains for immediate cash.

flag Homeowners in the U.S. are increasingly using equity-sharing agreements to access home equity without monthly payments, as high interest rates make traditional loans and refinancing less attractive. flag These agreements let homeowners sell a portion of their home’s future value for a lump sum, with repayment only occurring when the home is sold, refinanced, or after a 10- to 30-year term. flag Investors share in both gains and losses, and terms vary by provider. flag The option appeals to asset-rich, cash-poor homeowners, especially those with low-rate mortgages who avoid refinancing, but it involves giving up future appreciation and carries long-term financial trade-offs.
