The terms of the acquisition were not disclosed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Loftium will continue to operate independently and use its own branding, according to a press release. Loftium\u2019s 11 employees, including its two co-founders, will join Flyhomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Launched in 2017, Loftium offers a host-to-own program for homebuyers. It works by Loftium purchasing a home and placing the buyer in the home as a tenant. The company then rents out part of the house as an <strong>Airbnb<\/strong>, with the buyer\/tenant occupying same house.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Loftium keeps 40% of the short-term rental income each month, while the tenant keep 60%. The home can then be purchased by the tenant from Loftium within one to three years with a 3-5% down payment. The tenant&#8217;s rental income, which averages about $1,400 every month, can be used as the down payment for the purchase of the home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once purchased, the homeowner has the option to continue to rent out the home for income, with Loftium handling all of the rental details, from regulatory approvals to tenant bookings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Loftium CEO and co-founder Yifan Zhang, Loftium <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bizjournals.com\/denver\/news\/2022\/05\/19\/loftium-denver-host-to-own-program.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">locks in<\/a> a 4% yearly appreciation on the homes they buy as part of the host-to-own program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zhang said Flyhomes plans to integrate the program in its home search and buying tools through the acquisition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Loftium currently has rental properties in 10 markets and its host-to-own program operates in Denver and Portland. It raised $15 million in its 2019 Series A investment round, led by <strong>Norwest Venture Partners<\/strong>, which brought its total funding to $17.5 million, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.geekwire.com\/2023\/scoop-flyhomes-acquires-loftium-combining-two-seattle-real-estate-tech-companies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">according<\/a> to <strong>GeekWire.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company&#8217;s 2021 revenue was estimated at about $10 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last July, Flyhomes, which offers a cash offer product and a buy-before-you-sell product along with its full-service brokerage, <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.housingwire.com\/articles\/flyhomes-lays-off-20-of-its-employees-as-housing-demand-falls\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">laid off<\/a> 20% of its staff.
