We provide home equity financing with no monthly payments or interest, in exchange for a share in the future appreciation or depreciation of your home’s value.

Noah invests in the value of a home with the hope that as the home gains value, we will share in that appreciation with the homeowner. That means we can take a much more flexible approach. We take a broad look at each homeowner’s financial situation to determine if we are going to invest in the home alongside them.

  • No Monthly Payments
  • No Interest Rate or APR
  • No Prepayment Penalty
  • True Home Equity Partner

In terms of the homeowner, we review their overall financial profile to determine what impact Patch funding would have on their financial situation. We require that after we fund, their credit score be greater than 625 and their debt-to-income ratio (DTI) be less than 60%. After we invest, the homeowner’s lien-to-value (LTV) ratio must be less than 80%. Please note that all eligibility criteria and the final investment amount are subject to final underwriting by Noah.

We consider properties valued at $300,000+ in select metro areas:

  • California – Los Angeles, Orange County, Inland Empire, San Diego, SF Bay Area, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara
  • Colorado – Denver metro area
  • Oregon – Portland metro area
  • Utah – Salt Lake City metro area
  • Washington – Seattle metro area

As part of the final application and closing, we charge a one-time Servicing Fee of $2,000 or 3% of the financing amount, whichever is higher. This covers all costs, including processing and underwriting, as well as select third-party costs such as credit reports. The fees are deducted from your financing amount as part of the closing. For example: if you were to access $100,000 of home equity, the 3% servicing fee would amount to $3,000. Homeowners may be responsible for additional third party costs, such as affordable housing fees.
