Let’s see what an example Bonus Homes offer looks like.
Cash offer, no buyer needed,
close in less than 2 weeks
With Bonus, you don’t sell your home. Instead, you cash out all your equity and move on with life as if you sold it the traditional way, but you also retain a percentage of the home’s future worth, enabling you to profit twice—both today and from its future value.
Find a buyer, show the home and
hopefully close in 30 to 90 days
Once you sell your home, that’s it. You can’t profit again from that home. What’s worse, if you have a low interest rate you’re giving that up, too. We say, “don’t sell, Bonus!” By bonusing your home, we help you take full advantage of that great, low interest rate—today and beyond.
Start by getting your Bonus Homes offer.
Our goal is to provide you with the same cash equity amount that you’d receive as if you sold the home. Here’s a simple breakdown of the process.
Tell Us About Your Home
We’ll start by using publicly available data to understand your home and its surrounding area. We may also ask for some photos or a video so we can better understand its condition.
Receive Your Preliminary Offer
Based on the initial info, we’ll provide you a preliminary offer, which would be your total equity payout plus your estimated profit from the home’s appreciation.
Home Evaluation & Final Offer
After a quick, no-cost home evaluation/inspection, we’ll be able to see what your home may need to make it rent-ready.
Signing
Once the documents are e-signed, we work with you to coordinate your move (within 30 days after signing) and begin the funding process to align with your needs.
Funding and Move-Out
Funds are sent to escrow, you've moved, and from here on out you’ll never need to pay another dime while Bonus Homes manages your property.
Cash In On Your Bonus
After the minimum 5-year holding period, as the homeowner, you can initiate a sale. In some cases, you may want to take profit. Though, history shows that the longer you hold, the more you could potentially profit. At this point, it’s up to you!
Common questions from homeowners
The short answer is you own the home. After closing with Bonus, you remain the owner of your home and the only one on the title. We provide you with cash in the form of an equity payout in exchange for a percentage of your home's future appreciation and the right to rent the house for a set period of time. This equity payout is recorded as a lien position on the property, which will be removed when you sell your home or choose to buy back our initial payment. We are managing and optimizing your home for maximum future value on your behalf.
It’s not uncommon for the housing market to fluctuate, but history shows that real estate, over the long-term, goes up—making the risk associated fairly minimal. Should the home depreciate during your agreement with Bonus, we'll likely suggest allowing the market to settle and rebound before selling. Because Bonus is covering all the expenses—making it easy for you to hold onto your home for longer—small market fluctuations become less impactful, similar to how it’s not suggested to liquidate your 401k when the stock market dips a smidge.
Of course. You can end your Bonus Owner Agreement at any point after the 5-year holding period by buying back Bonus’ investment. The calculation and payment amount to Bonus is just like what would happen if you sold the home in the future, but since there is no actual sale the home value will be determined by an independent third-party appraisal. Please note, since your home will likely have a tenant during this time, we'll need to act in accordance with state laws.
This is the part where you get a check like you “inherited” it. As it were, ideally your home has appreciated to your liking and you want to cash in—awesome, that’s why Bonus exists. After the 5-year holding period, and up to 30 years, you can sell your home any time. Throughout our partnership, we'll be monitoring home values and market trends that will provide insights into determining when it’s a good time to sell and take your share of the profits. Whenever you choose to sell, you'll need to notify Bonus of your plans. Please note: The home cannot be sold for less than a minimum future sale value agreed upon at the start of our agreement.
Good news, you won't need to have a lengthy and cost-incurring appraisal to bonus your home. A simple and efficient home evaluation is all we need. Our evaluation team will inspect your property to gather the info we'll need to verify your home is what we'd consider to be in good rental condition. If any repairs are needed, they’ll be identified during the evaluation and completed before a tenant moves into the property. Unforeseen repairs may affect the final offer.
