Sales Consultant
Who we are
Hometap is a highly-funded startup, venturing into the massive $14T residential real estate market. Our vision is to empower current and prospective homeowners to access their home's equity free of debt. We’ve been funded from the beginning by top-tier VC firms and led by incredibly successful entrepreneurs. Our investment product gives homeowners access to tomorrow’s home equity, today, and frees them from the burdens of debt. Critical to our mission is being thoughtful in everything we build. If you’re someone who embraces this builder mentality, you’ll be right at home here.

Our learnings as we talk to customers will drive the sales strategy that you help to put in place. As a champion for Hometap, you’ll help build a sales organization that aligns the homeowner’s best interests with the long-term interests of the company. You’ll be essential to the formation of our team, philosophy and strategy.
