Unlock Your Home’s Equity in Columbus, OH with a Sale-Leaseback
For Columbus homeowners with significant equity who are considering alternatives to traditional home financing, SKYDAN Equity Partners offers a residential sale-leaseback program that allows you to access a portion of your home equity while continuing to live in the property.
From German Village and Clintonville to Olde Towne East and the Short North, Columbus homeowners take pride in their homes and the city they call home.
Through SKYDAN’s residential sale-leaseback program, qualified homeowners sell their property to SKYDAN and continue living in the home under a lease agreement. Remaining sale proceeds may be available in as little as 30 days, depending on the transaction and closing process. Rent is deferred according to the lease terms.

How the SKYDAN Sale-Leaseback Program Works
Our process is simple, transparent, and fast — with no banks, no interest, and no credit checks.

We buy your Columbus home.
SKYDAN purchases your home. At closing, applicable mortgage balances, liens, closing costs, and other amounts payable against the property are deducted from the seller’s sale proceeds. The remaining proceeds are distributed to the seller.

You stay right where you are.
Continue living in the property under a lease agreement for up to two years. Rent is deferred according to the terms of the lease.

You choose your next step.
Under the terms of your agreement, you may have the contractual option to repurchase the property. If you do not repurchase and the property is sold to a third party, you may receive remaining sale proceeds after the amounts specified in the agreement are paid.
Cash in as little as 30 days
No traditional income or employment verification
No monthly rent payments
Contractual option to repurchase
Another Way to Access Your Home’s Equity in Columbus
Most homeowners considering how to access their home equity look first at refinancing, home equity loans, HELOCs, or selling their property. SKYDAN’s Residential Sale-Leaseback Program provides another option.
Qualified homeowners sell their property to SKYDAN and continue living in the home under a lease agreement. You can access a portion of the equity you have built in your home, stay in place for up to two years, and determine your next step based on the contractual options available under your agreement.
This approach provides access to a portion of your home equity while allowing you to continue living in your Columbus home under a lease.
Benefits of SKYDAN’s Sale-Leaseback Program
SKYDAN’s sale-leaseback program gives qualified Columbus homeowners another way to make use of the value built in their homes.
Use available sale proceeds toward the purchase of your next home, giving you time to plan your move without having to sell and relocate at the same time.
A residential sale-leaseback provides a different structure for homeowners evaluating ways to access home equity. With SKYDAN, the property is sold to SKYDAN and the former homeowner remains in the property under a lease agreement.
Applicable mortgage balances, liens, and other amounts payable against the property are addressed through the closing process.
Properties in foreclosure, at risk of loss for unpaid property taxes, or with certain delinquent property-secured obligations may not qualify. Eligibility is subject to SKYDAN program requirements and applicable law.
Bankruptcy can affect a homeowner’s ability to complete a real estate transaction. Applicants with a current or recent bankruptcy may require additional review, and applicable trustee, court, or other approvals may be required before a transaction can proceed.
Why Columbus Homeowners Choose SKYDAN
SKYDAN offers Columbus-area homeowners a real estate transaction that works differently from traditional home financing.
The program may be worth considering for homeowners who:
- Have substantial equity in their home.
- Want to access a portion of the value built in their home.
- Want to continue living in their home after the property sale.
- Are considering a residential sale-leaseback as an alternative to refinancing or a home equity product.
- Want contractual options for what happens at the end of the lease term.
SKYDAN is a real estate investment firm that purchases qualifying properties and leases them back to the former homeowners under the terms of a residential lease agreement.
SKYDAN serves qualified homeowners throughout Franklin County, the greater Columbus area, and across Ohio.
