"SFR investing depends on healthy local markets that can support robust rents and potential home appreciation," said Don Ganguly, founder and CEO of HomeUnion. "One of our missions is to help investors see SFR not only as an alternative asset class but as a viable alternative to traditional cash-producing, fixed income investments such as bonds and CDs. Providing the research and transparency, similar to what is available in broader markets, is part of this evolution."
Steve Hovland, manager Research Services at HomeUnion, added, "Investors equipped with timely and accurate information are better positioned to maintain balanced portfolios. We help investors recognize macro-economic trends. Then help them leverage sales and rent comps, home prices and other housing data that enable investors make wise investment decisions."
HomeUnion's investment site allows individuals to invest remotely in single-family real estate, an asset class that was previously not available to the individual investor. With HomeUnion's guidance, investors choose a property from HomeUnion's database of vetted investments that best fits their investment needs (income generation, growth or balanced). HomeUnion manages the acquisition for the owner and then handles the ongoing management of the property. The site has been operational since last May.
