Housing instability is now a workforce problem

Chronic Turnover

Employees leave not for better pay — but because housing costs force relocation or longer commutes.

Rising Recruiting Costs

Replacing a single hourly worker costs an average of 50–200% of their annual salary in rehiring and retraining.

Wage Increases Aren't Enough

Raises don't solve housing instability. They provide temporary relief without changing the underlying dynamic.

No Existing Solution

Most employers lack a practical, compliant way to offer homeownership as a benefit. Until now.

How Employee Home Advantage Works

01

Employer Enrollment

Your company activates EHA as a voluntary workforce benefit through a simple onboarding process.

02

Employee Opt-In

Eligible employees voluntarily enroll and begin working toward homeownership milestones.

03

EHA Manages Everything

Program coordination, partner matching, compliance framework — handled entirely by EHA.

04

Employee Buys a Home

Within the 36-month program, eligible employees may access optional employer-funded down payment assistance of 3.5%–5%.

05

36-Month Full Retention Program

EHA is a complete 36-month retention program. No repayment required after 3 years of continued employment — fully earned through tenure.

Everything your team needs. Nothing it doesn't.

EHA is designed to plug into your existing benefits package without creating new complexity, headcount, or liability.

🛡️

No Lending or Real Estate Risk

All transactions occur off-platform through licensed third parties. EHA is not a lender or broker.

🔧

Zero Administrative Burden

EHA manages the entire program. Your HR team introduces the benefit — we handle the rest.

📊

Measurable Retention Impact

Track program participation and correlate directly with turnover reduction over time.

🌍

Scalable Across Locations

Geography-agnostic. Works across multi-state workforces without additional licensing.

Program Structure

What employers actually commit to

EHA charges the employer nothing for the program itself — no setup cost, no subscription fee, no per-employee admin charge. It's not free to run (employers fund the down payment contribution for participating employees), but the EHA platform, coaches, and partner network cost the employer nothing.

Employer setup & subscription fee $0 — No charge for EHA services
Per-employee program administration Handled by EHA
Optional down payment assistance (eligible employees) Employer-funded
Legal / compliance exposure None

No Balance Sheet Risk
No Regulatory Burden

A benefit employees will actually notice — and work to keep

EHA gives employees a clear, supported path to homeownership through their job. That's a benefit with lasting emotional and financial weight that wage increases simply can't replicate.

Built by someone who understands both housing and workforce

Jeff Walston founded Employee Home Advantage after two decades working across mortgage lending, real estate, multi-state business ownership, and workforce management — including through the 2008 housing collapse. He saw firsthand how housing instability drives employee decisions in ways that pay increases alone can't fix. EHA is the solution he wished existed.
