A sound financial decision

Purchasing with Acre builds just as much, if not more wealth than traditional options with the added benefit of downside protection.



We split the appreciation when times are good — and shield you from major losses when they’re not.

Only the best homes are Acre homes.

This means less maintenance and higher potential for appreciation.

    Avoid closing costs & bidding wars. Acre’s all-cash offers are 3X more likely to be accepted.

  • During

    Acre has your back with maintenance coverage & support. Sleep well knowing you have less risk of being “underwater” due to a down market.

  • After

    Save tens of thousands in selling costs, plus no competition if you decide to buy. Benefit from appreciation without the need for debt.

You choose what’s next

Your dream home today may not fit your needs of tomorrow. Acre offers three great options when you’re ready to make a change:

  • Buy the home

    Purchase the whole home from Acre without competing with others.

  • Transfer

    Transfer your Value Share towards another home in the Acre network.

  • Cash out

    Cash out your value share plus appreciation.
