This home happened to pop up at the perfect time, but maybe not the perfect financial time. And I said, let me introduce you to Ownify. These guys that have a completely new product that will eliminate this interest rate hurdle for you guys and give you the ability to get into this house that you really, really want. My name is Trevor Burrus. I'm a real estate agent with Love It Properties in Raleigh. Instantly, I knew we had something really special that was going to benefit a lot of our clients.
When I first heard, I thought this was a really unique and cool opportunity for first-time home buyers to have a competitive edge in our market. My name's Elise Helton. I'm a local realtor in Raleigh in the Triangle area. A lot of first-time home buyers are fearful from what they see on the news. I know how eager and excited they were to get into a home and start that next step. So because of Ownify, they were able to just put the 2% down, not worry about closing costs, repair, maintenance, and they could get into the home sooner. So I thought it would be a great fit for them.
So I tell my realtors and other realtors in the Triangle that Ownify is going to— it's going to expand your client base. I'm Bryant Levitt with Love It Properties, a real estate firm here in the Triangle helping people love their homes. My job is to be a useful tool and an asset to my realtors. Ownify has been that. I've been able to already put Ownify in front of clients but also my agents. Ownify makes every buyer that can make the monthly payment on equal footing.
The current path to ownership is an incredibly narrow and well-worn path that is very exclusive and has left a lot of people sidelined, especially now that the market's just gone bananas locally. I'm really excited that Ownify is here in this market. They've done their due diligence. The ownership agreement between Ownify and the ONI looks fantastic. My name is Jeremiah Jackson. I'm with Jackson Law. I am a real estate attorney, so I help people across the finish line from contract to close.
Ownify is going to change the game for people to be able to continue to buy homes when they no longer can afford it in the conventional way.
