Calque partners with community lenders so homeowners
can buy before you sell
The process of buying and selling a home is unnecessarily time-consuming, stressful and expensive for homeowners. A majority of homeowners have to sell their house in order to use their hard-earned equity to buy their next one.
After experiencing these frustrations first-hand, we founded Calque to design a better solution. That’s how we got started, and that’s our mission:
Calque partners with community lenders and local real estate agents so homeowners can buy before they sell for a simpler, less risky, and more affordable home purchase process.
We pioneered a new 'buy before you sell' business model founded on the principle that we only win when you win.
Whether you’re a homeowner, agent, or lending partner, we’ve carefully designed our processes so our incentives are always aligned with yours. Unlike our competitors who often profit by reselling consumers’ houses for more, requiring agent commission shares, or competing with lenders for purchase business, Calque does it a different way. We charge homeowners affordable fees and don't profit on reselling their house. Any agent can work with us at no cost, and our success is directly tied to our lending partners’ success.
Calque is a fintech company that partners with community lenders so they can offer consumers innovative home loans. Calque provides homeowners with a Purchase Price Guarantee (i.e., a backup offer on their existing home). Having the backup offer in place enables our lending partners to write non-contingent loans on the next home as if the current home has already sold. This modification simplifies and improves the homebuying process for homeowners, agents, and loan officers from start to finish.
Many of our competitors use business models that are less cost effective for homeowners that require duplicate closing costs, and in some instances, fees to lease the new home from the company until the original home sells.
Calque partners with local lenders to free up trapped home equity with a simple change to the loan process.
