Property Tax Financing + Deferral Marketplace

A licensed lending platform that allows Indiana homeowners to defer property tax payments via low-interest loans (4-6%), with the loan secured against future years' tax savings or home equity. Homeowners pay no tax bill today; they repay the loan over 5-7 years at predictable monthly installments, decoupling tax volatility from immediate cash flow.

Value Proposition

Homeowners avoid losing homes to tax foreclosure and replace unpredictable annual tax shocks with predictable, manageable monthly payments. This beats property tax loans from banks (which require strong credit and appraisals) and tax deferral programs (which are limited to seniors and have high interest). The marketplace model lets lenders compete on rates, driving down cost.

Target Audience

Indiana homeowners aged 55+ on fixed incomes, or middle-income homeowners (HHI $50-120k) facing sudden tax spikes who need 12-36 month payment relief

Key Features

  • Automated eligibility check: homeowner enters address, income, current tax bill → system calculates max deferral amount
  • Loan marketplace: 3-5 licensed lenders bid on each loan, homeowner picks lowest rate
  • Tax bill integration: platform automatically pays county on homeowner's behalf, preventing liens
  • And more, with full implementation detail...

Tech Stack

Indiana county assessor APIs (property data, tax bill history) Underwriting engine (custom-built or via LendingFront/Blend API) ACH/payment processing (Stripe, Plaid, or direct bank integration) Loan servicing software (Blend, Black Knight, or custom build)

Original Problem

Homeowners face unpredictable property tax burden with no clear path to relief

Indiana homeowners are desperately seeking solutions to escalating property tax costs that consume significant portions of their budgets, with current tax structures offering no transparency or control. Existing property tax systems lack viable alternatives, leaving residents trapped between paying ever-increasing taxes or losing their homes, while proposed legislative solutions remain uncertain and slow to implement.
