Movement Mortgage Partners with Figure to Offer Improved HELOC Delivery
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Figure, the country's top non-bank HELOC lender, and Movement Mortgage, the nation's sixth-largest retail mortgage lender, announced a transformative partnership that will allow Movement's borrowers faster access to home equity with approval in as few as five minutes and funding in as few as five days.
Movement will leverage Figure's platform amid a steady rise in mortgage interest rates and record tappable equity for homeowners. Consumers have shied away from taking out new mortgages and instead are seeking to tap into their existing home equity to complete renovations, consolidate debt, or generate extra cash flow while preserving their low mortgage interest rate. The partnership is designed to help Movement Mortgage borrowers access that value quickly and simply through Figure's end-to-end digital platform.
"Movement Mortgage is delivering enhanced financial access to their consumers as interest rates steadily rise," said Dan Wallace, General Manager of Figure Lending. "We are thrilled to partner with them as they continue to act as industry disruptors and implement processes that benefit their consumers. HELOCs may be significantly less expensive compared to other products, and consumers are seeking better avenues to access the equity in their homes."
"We are thrilled to partner with Figure to provide our borrowers with easy access to the equity they've built," said Caroline Payne, Movement's SVP of capital markets. "Figure's seamless user experience, commitment to quality, and superior customer service align with Movement's values and business goals. We look forward to working with Figure to help our borrowers reach their goals."
Figure's HELOC for Lending Partners provides a turnkey solution for lenders across the country. The speedy underwriting process provides a secure, transparent, and fast experience — eliminating friction points and costs common to traditional home equity lending. Partners can offer their customers a fast and easy way to tap home equity with a 100% online application process and funding in as few as five days.
