Acre builds $88,741 more over 3 years

Buying and selling a home costs about 10%, so it’s difficult to break even, let alone make money over a few years.

How Acre works

Share in the upside, limit the downside

Share in the upside

Put in 3% and keep 50% of the appreciation. If the home’s value rises by $50,000, $25,000 of it is yours when you leave.

Limit the downside

If the home’s value falls, you absorb only a small share: $2,500 of a $50,000 drop. With a mortgage, you’d lose the full $50,000.

Lower transaction costs

When you leave, buy the home with no fee, or cash out for 2% instead of the roughly 8% it usually costs to sell.

About this home

Four bedrooms, each with its own bath.

The big-ticket items are done: new HVAC systems in 2022 and 2026, new carpet, a new dishwasher, a new induction cooktop, fresh interior paint throughout, and a 2022 roof. Just move in and enjoy.

A double-sided stone fireplace anchors the open floor plan, hardwood floors run through the main level, and high ceilings open up every room. The first-floor primary suite has a dual vanity, a garden tub, and a custom walk-in closet. A second main-floor bedroom works as a guest suite, home office, or flex space. Upstairs, two more en suite bedrooms and a large bonus room give everyone room to spread out.

A large screened porch looks over the fenced backyard. The community pool, pond, and walking trails sit steps away, with downtown Apex, NC 540, shopping, and dining a few minutes off.
