3. Is using the AI estimate tool safe and secure?
Yes. Your information stays private and is used only to generate your personalized estimate. Nothing is shared or sold.

Not at all. Your estimate is free and obligation-free. You can review it, save it, or decide it’s not the right time — no pressure.
5. What happens after I receive my estimate?
You’ll see clear options (line of credit, lump sum, monthly payouts). You can compare them, explore different scenarios, and talk with a local expert only if you want to.
6. Does the tool work for condos in Hawaiʻi?
Yes. Our system checks condo eligibility using FHA and HECM guidelines. Many Hawaiʻi condos qualify — especially on Oʻahu and Maui.

Yes. Hawaiʻi has unique home values, condo rules, leasehold situations, and multigenerational living patterns. Our AI estimator and guidance are designed specifically for Hawaiʻi homeowners, not mainland assumptions.
