Move part of firm's initiatives to expand support for customers
loanDepot, Inc. has announced that mellohome, its real estate affiliate, has partnered with providers in the solar, home improvement, and home maintenance sectors.
“As mellohome continues to address the needs of today’s homebuyers, we’re evolving beyond core real estate services to build lifelong relationships with our customers,” said Norm Steeg, loanDepot senior vice president.
“Importantly, mellohome will now support customers throughout their entire homeownership journey, from searching and buying to renovating and selling, and everything in between, offering access to all of the home products and services a homeowner needs in one convenient portal,” he added.
mellohome has partnered with Lumio, a provider of personalized renewable energy solutions, as well as BOSSCAT Home Services and Technologies (BOSSCAT), a real estate data platform. Lumio will allow consumers to tap into solar energy more seamlessly while BOSSCAT will help them identify contractors and repair professionals for their home improvements and maintenance.
“Lumio’s mission is being propelled through our partnership with mellohome, expanding our reach as we work to provide a sustainable, alternative source of power to homeowners around the country,” said Kevin Copeland, Lumio’s SVP of business development.
“Just like mellohome, BOSSCAT is committed to supporting homeowners’ lifecycle needs through personalized insights, easy ordering and quality services,” said Min Alexander, CEO and founder of BOSSCAT Home Services and Technologies.
“We look forward to providing mellohome customers with access to our home improvement, repair and maintenance services,” he added.
The partnerships are part of the expansion of mellohome’s support for customers. It also complements the company’s existing real estate services as well as LDI’s purchase mortgage, refinance, and home equity customers seeking to either maintain or upgrade their homes.
The partnerships also build on mellohome’s current partnership with Homekeepr, which provides moving services, as well as ADT, which offers home security systems.
