About Us

Unison has created a smarter, better way to buy and own homes – one we call “home co-investing.”  Unison HomeBuyer helps buyers get the home they want with less debt. Unison HomeOwner provides current homeowners with cash without the monthly payment or added debt of a home equity loan or HELOC, and without the interest and fees typically attached to a reverse mortgage. In short, Unison is working to ensure the American dream can once again, become reality.
