How Does Co-Ownership with Ourboro Work?

Co-owning with Ourboro allows your clients to get into the market sooner by investing in the down payment alongside them. Our investment isn’t a loan, so there is no interest or additional debt. Instead, we buy a share in the future value of the home and, when the owner decides to sell, we each receive our fair share of the gains or losses.

As your client lives in the home we offer programs and services to help preserve and increase the home’s value, maximizing both of our returns.

Homeowners can co-own with us for up to 10-years. The homeowner is free to sell the home or make an offer to buy our share at any time. If they decide they’d like to remain in the home past the 10-year mark they may do so by paying fair market value, as determined by a third-party appraiser, for our share in the property.

When you refer a client to Ourboro you will represent both the homebuyer and Ourboro. Ourboro does not attend showings and our name will not appear on any offer materials. However, you will be required to follow Ourboro guidelines on conducting CMA analysis and making offers. These resources are available for download when you create a partner account with us and additional training will also be available to our partners on what it means to work with Ourboro.

Please note, Ourboro does not collect, or pay, any referral fees to agents who bring buyers to our program.

If you have a client that is ready to buy, but just needs some help with the down payment, register for an upcoming Referral Partner Training Session.

Ourboro has built partnerships with select lenders who understand our co-ownership product and are able to offer mortgages to our homebuyers, all at competitive rates. We currently work with a third-party brokerage partner to access these mortgages, and thus request that your clients’ mortgage application, should they receive an investment from Ourboro, be co-brokered through our preferred brokerage.

More details on the co-brokerage terms are available through our partner resources as well as through our training sessions. Ourboro is not a party to any co-brokered transactions and we do not charge, nor receive any share of commissions or broker fees associated with these transactions.

If you have a client that is ready to buy, but just needs some help with the down payment, register for an upcoming Referral Partner Training Session.
