How It Works

The path to homeownership has changed.

IGVhope re-engineers the process, so more people can move into a brand-new home now and own it later.

Why traditional buying no longer works

For decades, the traditional path to homeownership has been the same: save more, wait longer, hope prices don't rise.

The IGVhope Process

Three simple steps. One clear path to ownership.

1
Secure
Your home's price locked in today, even if the market moves.

Move into a brand-new home with no down payment required. Your purchase price is fixed at today's market value, written into your Purchase Agreement, registered on your home's title, and legally protected from future market changes.

2
Live
Move in to your brand new home. Clear monthly payments and security.

You pay a predictable monthly occupancy contribution, with annual increases capped in your Purchase Agreement so you'll always know what to expect. While you live in your home, we help prepare you for homeownership through annual check-ins with your IGVhope Navigator, support from lending partners to strengthen your credit profile and savings, and access to the IGVhope Pathway Academy for financial education and coaching.

3
Own
Transition to your mortgage at year ten at your year one price.

The market may change, but your purchase price won't. When you're ready, you secure a mortgage at the price agreed on Day One, and any increase in your home's value is yours. Along the way, you'll build a strong repayment history, supported by your IGVhope Navigator and mortgage broker. Once your mortgage is in place, title transfers to you—you own your home.
