Our Founding Story

Founder and CEO Brian Hardecker was inspired to start Truehold after witnessing his grandfather, Poppy, struggle to live at home and afford the care he needed as he got older.

Brian noticed that for many seniors like Poppy, homeownership, once a source of joy, often becomes a barrier to a better life as financial, physical, and lifestyle changes emerge.

This leaves them with a difficult choice: move to improve their financial or physical situation, or continue to struggle in the place they love?

Brian strongly believed that there had to be a better option, one that doesn’t require older homeowners to choose between their health and their home. So he set out to create one.

Our Mission

Truehold believes getting access to the hard-earned equity you’ve built in your house shouldn’t also mean taking on debt.

Whether it’s moving to a new place, building a dream home, consolidating your finances, launching a new business, navigating personal changes like divorce, or simply seeking freedom from the responsibilities of homeownership, we meet the diverse and wide-ranging needs of our current and prospective residents.

Through it all, our goal remains unchanged: to provide flexibility, financial freedom, and peace of mind to ever more American homeowners.
