OUR MISSION

Helping Homeowners Unlock Financial Freedom

Our residential sale-leaseback solutions help more people convert their home equity into cash, giving them a flexible, quick solution for their financial needs while staying in the homes they love.

Helping Homeowners Unlock Financial Freedom

At EasyKnock

our innovative residential sale-leaseback solutions are solving real problems for American homeowners.

Headquartered in New York City and founded in 2016, EasyKnock is a first-of-its-kind real estate technology company with over 100 employees nationwide working to help homeowners unlock their financial freedom.

While owning a home has long been accepted as a core component of the “American dream,” in today’s economic climate where debt continues to rise and homeownership costs are surging, this dream can seem more like a nightmare.

EasyKnock’s residential sale-leaseback programs were designed to provide liquidity, flexibility, and control to over 16% of Americans whose credit score makes them unable to access their home equity through conventional loans.1

With the acquisition of assets from Ribbon, Onder, and Balance Homes, EasyKnock is now able to provide more opportunities for buyers to land their dream home with cash-backed offers.
