OMAHA, NE — October 14, 2026 — Unison, a leading provider of innovative home equity solutions, today announced a strategic referral relationship with Fortune Energy, a premier nationwide wholesale distributor of solar products. Live as of October 2026, Unison’ Home Equity Sharing Agreement (ESA) is now available to Fortune Energy’s installer network, allowing solar professionals to refer interested homeowners to Unison to consider a nondebt equity financing alternative alongside for their solar installation.

A Non-Debt Alternative for Homeowners

‍
Eligible homeowners can access a portion of their home equity without taking on new debt, paying interest, or adding new monthly payments. Unison enables homeowners to access up to 15% of their home value in liquid cash with no new monthly payments, exchanging a portion of their home's future value instead. This provides residential homeowners with upfront capital that they may use to finance their transition to clean solar energy via Fortune Energy's installer network without taking on additional debt burdens or refinancing low-rate primary mortgages.

"Unison’s ESA allows our network to provide homeowners with a choice of flexible, nondebt financing for solar installations," said Jack Meng, President of Fortune Energy. "By unlocking capital without adding monthly payments, homeowners can transition to clean energy."

Theodor Haugen, VP of TPO and Customer Experience at Unison, notes that its ESA gives solar energy professionals and installers a versatile financial option for equity-rich homeowners, including clients locked into low mortgage interest rates who want to fund home energy upgrades without incurring constraints associated with mortgage loan products.
