SoFi and Delos Partner to Bring Delos’ Home Wellness Solutions to Homeowners
More consumers are looking to leverage their homes as part of their efforts to live healthier, says Delos CEO and Founder Paul Scialla.
Wellness real estate and technology company, Delos™, is collaborating
with online personal finance company, SoFi, to ensure homeowners will
have an accessible financing path to implement Delos’ DARWIN Home
Wellness Intelligence Network, a fully-integrated residential solution
designed to enhance the health and well-being of residents.
DARWIN is a powerfully responsive platform that passively monitors and
calibrates the home environment to help support the health and
well-being of occupants. SoFi’s trusted platform and genuine commitment
to homeowner well-being made them an ideal partner as Delos officially
launches DARWIN in the U.S.
As society becomes increasingly urbanized, people are spending as much
as 90% of their time indoors. Recognizing this shift in modern living,
Delos spent seven years collaborating with leading institutions and
experts to research the impact that the places where we spend our time
have on our physical, cognitive and emotional health. DARWIN builds upon
this research to help support our health and well-being where it matters
most – in the places where we live.
“More consumers are looking to leverage their homes as part of their
efforts to live healthier,” says Delos CEO and Founder Paul Scialla. “We
are committed to making DARWIN accessible to as many people as possible,
and that means not just affordable pricing, but also flexible financing
options.”
Through its innovative, online platform, SoFi is revolutionizing the
personal loan process by offering tools and improved accessibility to
help its customers make more informed and intelligent financing
decisions. By partnering with Delos, SoFi is taking its commitment to
customers even further by investing in their health and well-being.
“We want to help people get ahead, and health and wellness is a critical
part of that," said Bob Buch, VP of Partnerships at SoFi. "We’re excited
to partner with Delos to help make their home wellness solutions more
accessible to homeowners across the country.”
SoFi personal loans can be a helpful option for consumers seeking funds
to integrate DARWIN in their homes beginning in the second half of 2019.
DARWIN will be available across the U.S. as part of the new construction
or renovation process, from mass market to luxury, through
collaborations with developers and builders, including KB Home, and
trained HTSA Network dealers and installers. These collaborations are a
critical step in extending the opportunity to prioritize wellness for
everyone.
