Founded in 2016 by CEO Jarred Kessler and Ben Black, EasyKnock pioneered the residential sale-leaseback model in the United States, allowing homeowners to sell their property to EasyKnock for immediate liquidity while remaining as tenants in their home — targeting homeowners seeking to access equity without moving, those facing potential foreclosure, or property owners seeking capital for investments.
