Company Description

Unison opens the door for more people to buy and own the home they want with less debt through its HomeBuyer and HomeOwner programs.

Founded in 2004, Unison introduced Home Ownership Investments to consumers. Unison’s Home Ownership Investments directly address the challenges consumers are facing in saving for a down payment. A Home Ownership Investment allows you to take on less debt, giving you the much needed flexibility and control to choose a style of financing that works best for your situation. No longer are you trapped in the old way of financing a home. Borrow less. Live comfortably. Pay when you sell. Our HomeBuyer program allows you to strengthen or double your down payment, and our HomeOwner program allows you to unlock the equity tied up in your home. No interest charges and no monthly payments to us. In 2017, Unison was recognized as a leader in today’s financial technology space by winning three Benzinga Global Fintech Awards, and the FinovateSpring ‘Best of Show’ Award. GoBankingRate included Unison on its list of ‘Startups to Watch in 2018’ and Bank Innovation added Thomas Sponholtz and Jim Riccitelli to its list of ‘Most Innovative CEOs in Banking.’ In addition, the company raised over $300 million in total investment capital, experienced significant growth in headcount and added industry veteran, Ron Suber, as an investor and strategic advisor. In 2018 Unison will launch additional programs to help more consumers and is expected to experience triple digit growth.
