You can choose to pay Fraction back or apply to refinance. If you choose to exit, you must repay the full lump sum you received plus interest.

Pay back Fraction
This is the path most people take. You can either work with a different mortgage lender, downsize or sell, or use other investments to pay out Fraction.
The amount owed includes the remaining balance on the loan and the interest accrued.
Refinance your loan
In some situations where you didn't take out a large percentage of your home equity with Fraction to begin with, you may be eligible to refinance with Fraction for another 5 year term.
Refinancing is contingent on several conditions including credit score and appraisal and is subject to a 1% refinancing fee.

We’re making a lot of people happy
We were very pleased with Fraction. We were looking for a reverse mortgage but told we didn't qualify. Fractions is the same idea but has better options. We were explained everything thoroughly and could easily contact them when we had questions. We were always treated with respect. Completely satisfied!!!
A fair, flexible and life changing option. Highly recommend Fraction.
Excellent service. Everything was executed perfectly great communication skills with fraction in my mortgage broker and lawyers it certainly has given me great comfort to have switched to fraction. The product that fraction offered me was the perfect solution I am so happy that I made this choice.
I find this product (being able to access equity and not having to make monthly payments) as ideal for my financial situation at the present time. The process was extremely seamless to follow, and the human interaction was cordial and efficient.
We found Fraction through our broker. What an amazing product! We are mortgage free and purchased a 2nd property but weren't prepared to start making huge mortgage payments again. This worked perfectly for us.
My family and I were able to tap into the value in our home, which was not available to us through standard lenders/banks. So far our expected interest rate is holding as the central bank tackles inflation and raises rates. This innovative product allowed us to get into a home we own and bought us time to get our financial circumstance to where we could access traditional lending. Just what we needed when we needed it
I still can’t believe this incredible deal I got which made it possible to purchase my retirement dream home. I have been telling everyone I know about Fraction and recommending you. Thank you so much Daniel and all the professional at Fraction! I look forward to doing more business with you in the future.
Fraction has been the light at the end of the tunnel for me, at least for now and i look forward to a longer relationship
“...Fraction offered us an opportunity that was best for us at this point in our 73-year-old lives, and with the house that we're living in. We're hoping for continued appreciation of our home over the next 5 years, so that this deal will turn out to be a 'win-win' for us, as well as for Fraction. They managed to come up with a brilliant mortgage product, that segues perfectly into what the current mortgage market does NOT offer.”
From start to finish, my experience was no less than stellar. They explained the process, the paperwork, what was going to happen from point to point. Saki was a great guy to deal with and was very understanding of my specific issues and how to overcome them. Highly recommend dealing with Fraction if you are looking for this type of mortgage.
I'm so grateful for fraction, it came right when I needed it. I didn't have to wait till I was 55 years old, I am currently 50. They were helpful and quick, they answered all my questions quickly and in detail. I will definitely do business with them again in the future. Fraction has given me the chance to live my dream life! Thank you Fraction.
I have been dealing with Fraction for about 6 months now and have 5 properties with them. They have helped my husband and I realize our dreams of owning 5 properties. Using the equity in our homes we are able to renovate the properties to our liking. This benefits both Fraction and ourselves by increasing the value of the homes. It's a win, I win!

Following a third-party appraisal of your home and a check of all your information, you may or may not be approved for a Fraction Mortgage.
Based on your application and the appraised value of your home, Fraction will determine how much cash you qualify for. Upon a deeper review, we will provide you with documentation outlining your funding amount and corresponding terms and conditions. Once you sign the final documents, we send you your money.
Learn more here, in our Fraction Basics modules.
Anyone who owns a home and has enough equity built up can work with us. We have no age restrictions.
Since there are so many factors that contribute to partnering with Fraction, each property is evaluated independently. Working with Fraction starts with getting a free estimate. With our estimate tool you can see how much tax-free cash you qualify for, with no impact to your credit score.
From there, after a hard pull credit check (which may impact your credit score) and official appraisal of your home, we’ll send you an agreement for your review. Here are some of the things we screen for before we lend:
- The single-family dwelling is located in a province or state in which we’re currently operational
- A 640 credit score
- A minimum of {{min_equity}} equity in your home
You decide. Fraction will receive payment when you sell the home or choose to pay back Fraction. At the end of the 5 years, if you qualify, you can refinance with Fraction, otherwise you will have to refinance with another mortgage lender in order to pay back Fraction.
Fraction makes money from our interest rate and our origination fees. Fraction offers this financing because millions of homeowners want to be able to take cash out of their home without linking it to monthly cash outflows or having to sell.
It gives people financial freedom and another way to live their life to the fullest. Fraction may not work for everyone. For those that aren’t best served by other options in the market, the ability to take money out and diversify it, buy an investment property or second home, help a child with a down payment, or invest in a new business venture are the main reasons why we exist.
It depends. If you have an existing mortgage, you must have enough built up equity in your home to qualify for Fraction. We do require that you pay off your existing mortgage to work with us (you can use Fraction to pay off your existing mortgage).
