A new way to buy and sell your home

Catapult Homes spun out of a Bay Area family business in real estate lending. While working alongside his dad closing loans for real estate purchases, Ankur saw an opportunity to simplify the process of selling one's home while also buying a new one.

We are bringing decades of experience from the finance and technology industries - along with our adviser's thirty year track record in real estate lending - to build a new kind of real estate business that simplifies home ownership. Our goal is to empower homeowners to buy a new home without a double move or double mortgage.
