A new way to buy and sell your home.
Catapult Homes spun out of a Bay Area family business in real estate lending.
Bringing decades of experience from the finance and technology industries.
We’re building 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.

Why did we start this?
Homeowners looking to move usually have two bad choices: (1) move out first, stage and sell the home, then shop for a new one; or, (2) take on an expensive loan or a second mortgage - if they can even get one - and buy the second home first. We built Catapult to help free up homeowners to buy a new home without the stress. One move, no double mortgage.
Our four step process.

We believe in simplicity.
Personalized service
We’re here to help you, the homeowner. We get to know each customer we work with and are focused on ensuring each transaction we help with is seamless for the homeowner.
Timely response
Nothing drives us crazier than waiting days and even weeks to hear back from service providers. Our aim is to respond to all customer inquiries within 24 hours.
Transparent costs
Since you’ve bought a home before, you know how many fees and costs often surprise homeowners later. Not with us. We are direct and up-front on our fee: it’s a flat percentage of the final sale price for your home, with zero up-front costs.
