According to Home Captain, currently, more than 60% of all homes in the US belong to a mortgage portfolio. Banks and financial companies that own these mortgage portfolios experience substantial financial run-off when people sell their homes.

Several homeowners that sell their homes, buy a new house, however, they do not arrange a mortgage with their original lender, said Home Capital. Historically, mortgage servicers have struggled with retaining their customers who sell their home and buy a new home.

By acquiring Redefy, Home Captain can now offer tailored programs to banks and mortgage servicers that enable their customers to sell and buy a home through a “pick your path” real estate experience. This will lead to an enhanced customer experience, considerable cost savings, and better brand loyalty to the lending institution, said Home Captain, while eventually reducing runoff and increasing customer retention.

Together, we aim to improve the real estate transaction for not only home buyers and sellers but also for real estate agents, lenders, insurance providers and title companies.”
