Knox is the first financial institution for property investors. With Knox, you can afford to buy your new home and keep your old house as a fantastic long term investment. We’re changing how homeowners and property investors build wealth. There are great brands up and down Wall Street ready to make the most of your portfolio of stocks and bonds, but Knox is the first and only investment firm focused on property. 

Used to be, you had to sell one home to pay for the next. Knox Financial was founded by experienced entrepreneurs who looked at the value of the homes they used to own and kicked themselves for selling. Now, things are different. Knox is unlocking preferred rates of return and creating generational wealth for families up and down the economic spectrum. Venture funded, we’re building an extraordinary team to help us expand rapidly. 

Knox is a mission-driven company with a diverse team that values honest and transparent communication, elegant and focused execution, as well as individual and team excellence. We offer market compensation and meaningful equity for world-class teammates.  In 2021, Knox grew in excess of 300%, launched in 3 new cities, and closed an A-round of investment.  Best of all, we’re just getting started!
