ABOUT US:
 
RenoFi’s mission is to empower every homeowner to be a renovator. 
 
Founded in 2018, RenoFi created the world’s first Renovation HELOC – called the RenoFi Loan. RenoFi Loans enable homeowners to borrow based on the after renovation value (ARV) which dramatically increases a homeowner’s borrowing power by 11x on average, all without having to refinance out of their existing low mortgage rate. 
 
By leveraging RenoFi’s proprietary Renovation Underwriting technology platform, RenoFi provides lending partners with a turnkey solution to offer the best renovation financing solutions in the market.
 
Over time, RenoFi evolved into becoming the world’s first one-stop-shop for renovation finance, offering every renovation financial product available from renovation home equity loans, to unsecured home improvement loans, to land loans, construction loans and so much more. No one in the country can match the breadth and depth of the renovation solutions available to homeowners through RenoFi. 
 
To date, RenoFi has helped finance over $1 billion in renovation projects and is backed by leading investors including Fifth Wall, Canaan, First Round Capital, and TruStage Ventures. Learn more at www.renofi.com.

What We Do

enoFi offers the first home equity loan purpose built for renovations. For homeowners planning a renovation, RenoFi loans let you borrow the most money at the best possible terms without the need to refinance your primary mortgage. This is because RenoFi uses the expected value of your home post-renovation rather than your home’s current value, increasing your borrowing power. For lenders, RenoFi is the only scalable, turn-key channel of renovation loans and provide a cost-effective means of growing your home equity portfolio.
