Foundation repair customer financing lets homeowners apply for credit toward eligible residential repair work through a participating lender. Ottri gives your business one branded application and a shared financing workflow. Your team can discuss the assessed scope and estimate while following the customer's application and required next steps. One branded application reaches 20 participating lenders, so a decline from one lender is not the end of the foundation repair sale. ### What happens if the first lender says no? Nothing extra for you or your customer. The homeowner fills out one branded application, and Ottri moves it to the next participating lender automatically, across 20 lenders on the Ottri network. Your customer sees one application under your brand the whole way, and you see every step in your dashboard. Each lender makes its own decision. ### Which foundation repair projects can a customer apply to finance? Eligibility depends on the assessed repair scope, property, homeowner, amount, and participating program. Describe the stabilization, repair, or related work your business proposes, with the required supporting information. Ottri matches each structural repair to the participating programs built for that kind of work. Because one application is considered by multiple lender programs in sequence, a project that does not fit one program can still fit another. ### What does Ottri cost, and how do we get started? Free to start. No setup fee, no subscription, no demo. Create your account, complete onboarding, and send your first application as soon as your programs are active. Lender and promotional costs, where they apply, depend on the program you choose. ### How can we follow up when the homeowner needs time after the inspection? Send the branded application with the foundation repair proposal. Your team can review its status and required next steps in Ottri before following up, rather than asking only whether the homeowner is ready to proceed. Keep the repair recommendation and financing decision clear: your business explains the work, and the participating lender decides the credit terms. A homeowner who needs a week to think still has an application the office can see and follow up on. ### Will the financing stay under our brand, and are applications sold as leads? Yes, it is your brand from start to finish. Your logo, colors, and contact are on every screen the homeowner sees. We never sell applications as leads. The customer stays yours; the participating lender simply provides the credit, and its required disclosures appear where the law requires. ### How is the financing amount matched to a foundation repair estimate? Start with the specified repair plan and an estimate identifying the work and costs. The participating lender determines eligible costs, the approved amount, and terms after reviewing the application. If further assessment changes the repair scope, check the financing requirements before relying on the previous amount or offer. Across the Ottri network, participating programs cover projects from $1,000 to $750,000, so a full stabilization plan is well within range. ### When can our business expect to receive the repair funds? The participating lender's funding process controls when funds are released directly to your business. Required agreements, documents, and project confirmations may need to be completed first. Review those conditions before planning around the funds; Ottri does not promise a universal advance, draw schedule, or payment date. On eligible programs the lender pays your business directly, so you are not waiting on the homeowner to forward the funds. ### Who approves the financing and sends the funds? The participating lender approves the financing and sets the terms. On eligible programs the lender pays your business directly, so you are never chasing the homeowner for payment. Ottri Global LLC is a licensed loan broker, NMLS 2776988, and is not a lender. ### Does applying for financing affect the homeowner’s credit? Applying is built to be easy on the homeowner. Whether a program uses a soft or hard inquiry depends on the lender, the product, and the step, and the homeowner sees that information on screen before continuing, so there are no surprises. --- About Ottri: Ottri is a licensed loan broker, NMLS 2776988.
