Preserve your financial flexibility

You can buy your next home outright with cash, eliminating the need for a monthly mortgage payment.

Or, with an H4P loan, you can free yourself from the burden of monthly mortgage payments, where you'll only need to put down 45%-75%** of the purchase price, freeing up more of your funds for other uses. You just need to live in the home and pay essential property charges like taxes and insurance.

By preserving more of your assets and cash flow through an H4P loan, you may be better equipped to navigate retirement risks such as soaring inflation and unexpected expenses.
