Sell & Stay — Unlock Equity Without Moving
Access your home's equity while continuing to live in the home you love. No moving trucks, no packing, no disruption.
A Different Kind of Sale
Your Home, Your Timeline, Your Equity
What if you could access the equity in your home without packing a single box? The Sell & Stay program does exactly that. You sell your home to an investor, then lease it back and continue living there on terms that work for you.
It's a powerful option for homeowners who need liquidity but aren't ready or willing to leave their home. Whether you're a retiree with significant home equity but limited cash flow, or a downsizer who knows you need to move eventually but isn't ready today, Sell & Stay gives you flexibility.
Unlock Your Equity
Turn your home equity into cash you can use today. Pay off debt, fund retirement, cover medical expenses, or invest in your next chapter. The equity you've built is yours to use.
Stay in Your Home
Continue living in the home you know and love. Your routine doesn't change. Your neighbors don't change. Your children visit the same house. The only thing that changes is your financial flexibility.
Flexible Lease Terms
You choose the leaseback duration. Six months, a year, or longer. We'll structure terms that give you time to plan your next move without pressure. You leave when you're ready, not when a buyer says so.
No Disruption
No showings, no open houses, no strangers walking through your home. No packing, no moving trucks, no temporary housing. The sale happens quietly, and life continues exactly as it was.
How Sell & Stay Works
We connect you with a vetted investor who purchases your home at fair market value. At closing, you receive your equity as cash. Simultaneously, you sign a leaseback agreement that allows you to remain in your home. The lease terms are negotiated upfront, so you know exactly how long you can stay and what your monthly payment will be.
When you're ready to move, you give notice per the lease terms and transition to your next home on your own timeline. No pressure. No deadlines. Just flexibility.
Who Is Sell & Stay Best For?
This option is ideal for retirees with substantial home equity but limited retirement income. It works for empty nesters who know they should downsize but aren't emotionally ready to leave. It fits homeowners facing financial challenges who need to access equity without relocating. And it serves anyone who simply wants flexibility — the ability to unlock the value in their home while staying put until they're truly ready to move.
It's one of the most creative solutions in real estate, and it's a perfect example of how Team Haigh thinks beyond the traditional transaction to find what actually works for your family.
