FirstREX is changing its name to Unison Home Ownership Investors and making it possible for more people to buy a home today

0

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 5, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — FirstREX, the leader in home ownership investments is changing its name to Unison and introducing favorable new terms for its flagship home buying program Unison HomeBuyer.

Unison pioneered the home ownership investment category over the last 10 years. Now, in combination with expanding national lending relationships the revolutionary Unison HomeBuyer program is available to more first time, Millennial and move up buyers across the country. “Our home ownership investments empower home buyers with unprecedented flexibility, choice and control” said Co-CEO Thomas Sponholtz. “Unison HomeBuyer solves a fundamental need by contributing up to half of the down payment on a home purchase. With our partnership, buyers putting down less than 20 percent can buy more home with less debt and a lower monthly payment.”

New Unison HomeBuyer Terms

Unison provides up to half of the down payment required on a home. The cash provided is an investment, not a loan, so there are no monthly payments or interest. Instead, the company hopes to earn a return on its investment by sharing in the appreciation when the home owner eventually sells. If the home value decreases, Unison also shares in the loss.

Along with the name change, the terms of the Unison HomeBuyer Agreement have improved. Unison’s share of the appreciation has been reduced at every investment level effective November 30th 2016.

“We have matured as a company, and we are now making Unison HomeBuyer available to millions of Americans, and at a lower cost” said Co-CEO James Riccitelli. “Home buyers worried about affordability or committing every dollar of their savings towards a down payment no longer need to sit on the sidelines, because Unison HomeBuyer empowers them to buy the home they want today. We are cutting the time it takes to save for a down payment in half.”

New website features at www.myunison.com

The new website provides a comprehensive introduction to Unison HomeBuyer. Prospective homebuyers can see the power and flexibility of a home ownership investment. Success stories of Unison clients illustrate how home buyers have used a home ownership investment to get the home they really want.

“Home ownership investments are the only new thing to happen to real estate in a long time,” said Director of Marketing Sabin Speiser. “Prospective home buyers owe it to themselves to visit myunison.com before they go home shopping. They’ll learn how a home ownership investment empowers them to dramatically increase their down payment so they can buy more home, lower their monthly payment or reserve cash – without taking on more debt.”

About Unison Home Ownership Investors

Unison is a home ownership investment company. Founded in March 2004, San Francisco-based Unison makes long-term investments in individual residential properties through two innovative programs: Unison HomeBuyer, which provides a portion of the down payment needed to purchase a home, and REX Agreement, which allows current homeowners to tap into their home equity without interest or monthly payments. Managed by a veteran team of financial services experts, Unison is committed to providing consumers with the partnership and support needed to buy and own their home.

Production Underway On Investigation Discovery’s First Movie, Dating Game Killer, Starring Guillermo Diaz As Serial Killer Rodney Alcala

Guillermo Diaz of DATING GAME KILLER for Investigation Discovery

SILVER SPRING, Maryland, Dec. 2, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Today, Investigation Discovery (ID) announced the commission of DATING GAME KILLER from Thinkfactory Media. Production is currently underway for ID’s first ever true-crime movie, set to premiere in early 2017 on America’s leading mystery and suspense television network.

Photo – http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20161202/445126 

The thriller directed by Peter Medak (“Romeo is Bleeding,” “The Krays”), stars Guillermo Diaz (“Scandal,” “Weeds”) as Rodney Alcala, a man with a near-genius IQ, whose charm and smooth talking ability landed him an appearance on the television show “The Dating Game” in 1978 – and, subsequently, a place in history as one of America’s most prolific serial killers. Alcala preyed on young attractive women, luring them by telling them he was a professional photographer who wanted to enter their photos in a contest. While the precise victim count remains unknown, Alcala is suspected to have killed as many as 130 women and children before he was finally captured in 1980. Through parallel storylines, DATING GAME KILLER charts Alcala’s reign of terror alongside the gut-wrenching journey of Carol Jensen (Emmy winner Carrie Preston, “The Good Wife,” “True Blood”) as she seeks justice for her murdered daughter. Chronicling the depth of lives impacted by her murder, audiences also follow Det. Jim Hamill (Robert Knepper, “Prison Break,” “Twin Peaks“) and his partner Greg Ryan (Matt Barr, “Hatfields & McCoys”) on their restless mission to put Alcala behind bars, and the plight of Alcala’s mother Anna (Alma Martinez, “The Bridge”) as she comes to the realization that her own son has done the unthinkable. 

“ID has become the premier destination for consistent, high-quality, true-crime content, and we’re excited to extend our storytelling with DATING GAME KILLER, our first scripted movie,” said Henry Schleiff, Group President, Investigation Discovery, American Heroes Channel, and Destination America. “Thinkfactory’s creative vision and our stellar cast will bring to life the cat and mouse story of how Alcala evaded the justice system for years and, as such, this is a frightening but true cautionary tale of how we must increasingly be ever vigilant of the evil that lurks, today, in our society.” 

“It’s a real privilege to be working with the team at ID on their first scripted project,” said Leslie Greif, Founder and CEO of Thinkfactory Media and Executive Producer on the movie. “They have collaborated with us to gather a top-tier director and cast; allowing us to bring a real depth and sophistication to these characters and this story. Alcala is a harrowing figure and we are confident the ID audience will be fully engaged with Alcala’s story and those of the investigators and mother of one of the victims who helped finally bring Alcala to justice.”

DATING GAME KILLER is produced for Investigation Discovery by Thinkfactory Media with Peter Medak (“Romeo is Bleeding,” “The Krays”) as director and Martin Hunter (“Full Metal Jacket”) as editor, from a script by Leslie Greif & Darrell Fetty. For Investigation Discovery, Angela Bromstad is executive producer, Sara Kozak is senior vice president of production, Jane Latman is executive vice president of development, and Henry Schleiff is Group President, Investigation Discovery, American Heroes Channel and Destination America.
