TORONTO, March 11, 2026 – The Home Equity Partners (“HEQ”), a Toronto-based fintech firm and leader in the home equity sharing space, is thrilled to mark its one-year anniversary after a year of rapid growth, product innovation, and proven success in the Greater Toronto Area market.

During its inaugural year, HEQ has built a growing portfolio of residential real estate assets, with the total combined value of managed properties now exceeding $11 million. The firm has also raised more than $2 million in capital from a diverse group of investors and strategic partners, positioning HEQ to expand its reach and continue supporting homeowners seeking flexible financial solutions.

“Our first year focused on laying a strong foundation – forging trusted partnerships, assisting homeowners, and proving the value of home equity sharing as a responsible financial option,” said Shael Weinreb, CEO of The Home Equity Partners. “We’re incredibly proud of our progress and excited to keep growing our presence as demand for home equity sharing evolves.”

As part of its ongoing expansion, HEQ is pleased to announce the appointment of Carl Anthony as Director of Business Development and Corporate Partnerships. In this role, Carl will lead strategic growth initiatives and build high-impact partnerships across the organization.

With over 20 years of experience in recruitment and talent advisory – much of it as an entrepreneur – Carl brings a proven ability to identify opportunities, foster trusted relationships, and scale businesses intentionally. His career has been defined by connecting people, capital, and strategy to drive measurable results in complex, competitive markets.

As a market leader, HEQ helps homeowners access their home’s accumulated value while enabling investors to tap into Canadian residential home price appreciation.
