Common questions at a glance

What is an Aspire HEI agreement and how does it work?

  • An Aspire HEI agreement provides you with a cash payment today in exchange for an option to share in a portion of the future change in value of your home. 

  • At the end of the agreement, if your home has gone up in value, Aspire will receive its share of that increase in value. If the value of the home goes down, Aspire will receive less. 

  • You retain complete control of your home and can end the agreement at any time – typically through the sale of the home or a buyout of the agreement.
