Linkhome adds mortgage platform with stock and earnout-based deal.

Linkhome plans to buy Mortgage One Group by issuing 300,000 shares and offering an earnout of up to $750,000 tied to two years of mortgage origination volume. A further $250,000 in consulting fees supports transition and integration.

Mortgage One Group brings eight branches, 18 state licenses (eight active), about 30 loan officers, nine loan managers, and an $18 million warehouse line of credit. Non-competition and non-solicitation covenants aim to preserve the acquired business while Linkhome deploys its AI platform into loan processing and underwriting assistance.

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and an amended outside date of July 1, 2026, with no dependency on completion of a second-round financing. Subsequent company filings may provide more detail on financial contribution, integration progress, and expansion of AI-enabled products.

Stock Purchase Agreement financial
"entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Constant Investments, Inc."
A stock purchase agreement is a legal contract that sets the terms for buying or selling shares, specifying the price, number of shares, how payment is made, and any conditions or promises each side must meet. It matters to investors because it defines who owns what, when ownership changes, and what protections or obligations attach to the deal—think of it as a detailed receipt plus the house rules that determine the financial risks and benefits of the transaction.
earnout financial
"right to receive an earnout of up to $750,000 in cash (the “Earnout Cap”)"
An earnout is a financial agreement in which part of the purchase price for a business is paid later, based on the company's future performance. It acts like a bonus system, where sellers earn extra money if the business hits certain goals, aligning their interests with the buyer’s success. Investors pay attention to earnouts because they influence the total deal value and can affect the company's future financial health.
restricted securities regulatory
"The Stock Consideration will be issued as “restricted securities” in accordance with Section 4(a)(2)"
Restricted securities are shares or other investment instruments that come with legal or contractual limits on when and how they can be sold, like stock given to founders or bought in a private offering. Think of them as assets in a locked box that can’t be freely traded until certain conditions — such as a waiting period, company registration, or specific approvals — are met. For investors this matters because restricted securities are less liquid and can affect timing, price, and perceived value when they eventually enter the market.
non-competition financial
"will include customary non-competition, non-solicitation, and confidentiality covenants"
A non-competition is a contractual restriction that prevents a person or business from starting or working in a competing business within a specified time and geographic area after leaving a job or completing a transaction. It matters to investors because it acts like a temporary fence around customers, trade secrets and know‑how, helping protect future revenue and company value; weak or unenforceable restrictions can increase the risk of customer loss and competitive erosion.
warehouse line of credit financial
"and currently has an $18 million warehouse line of credit"
A warehouse line of credit is a short-term loan that a lender provides to a company or a smaller lender to fund inventory, loans, or goods before those assets are sold or packaged into a longer-term financing product. It matters to investors because it smooths cash flow and supports growth—like a bridge loan for stock—so problems with the line can signal liquidity stress and affect a company’s ability to operate or expand.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On May 8, 2026, Linkhome Holdings Inc. (the “Company” or “Linkhome”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Constant Investments, Inc., a Texas corporation doing business as Mortgage One Group (the “Target”), and Jun Choi and Richard Tak, the sole shareholders of the Target (the “Sellers”). Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, Linkhome will acquire from the Sellers all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Target, resulting in Linkhome owning 100% of the Target’s shares.

 

The aggregate consideration for the acquisition consists of the issuance by Linkhome of 300,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Stock Consideration”) to the Sellers at closing, together with the Sellers’ right to receive an earnout of up to $750,000 in cash (the “Earnout Cap”), contingent on the post-closing performance of the Target’s mortgage origination business over a two-year period. The Stock Consideration will be issued as “restricted securities” in accordance with Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The earnout, if and to the extent earned, will be calculated at a rate of twenty-five (25) basis points (0.25%) of funded loan volume originated by the Target during the two-year period following the closing, subject to the Earnout Cap and conditions as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement.

 

In connection with the transaction, Linkhome has also agreed to entered into consulting agreements with each of the Sellers (the “Consulting Agreements”), under which the Sellers will provide transition support, business continuity, and operational assistance during the two-year period following closing (the “Transition Period”). As compensation for these services, the Sellers will receive in the aggregate $250,000 in cash as consulting compensation, payable in equal monthly installments over the Transition Period. The Consulting Compensation is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Consulting Agreements, which are being entered into concurrently with closing.

 

Additionally, as a condition to closing, each Seller will execute a restrictive covenant agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to Linkhome (each a “Restrictive Covenant Agreement”). The Restrictive Covenant Agreements will include customary non-competition, non-solicitation, and confidentiality covenants that restrict the Sellers’ ability to compete with the acquired business, solicit employees or customers, or disclose confidential information for specified periods following the closing.

 

The Stock Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, and indemnities of the parties, including non-competition and non-solicitation provisions applicable to the Sellers. The closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to be on or before May 31, 2026 (the “Closing Date”), subject to satisfaction of closing conditions.

 

On May 12, 2026, Linkhome, the Target, and the Sellers entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Amendment”). The Amendment extends the target Closing Date to July 1, 2026. The Amendment also clarifies that completion of the Buyer’s second-round financing is not a condition to the Sellers’ obligations to close.

 

A copy of the Stock Purchase Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and a copy of the Amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Stock Purchase Agreement and the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Agreement and the Amendment.

Exhibit 99.1

 

Linkhome Holdings Inc. Enters Definitive Agreement to Acquire Mortgage One Group

 

IRVINE, Calif, May 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Linkhome Holdings Inc. (the “Company” or “Linkhome”) (Nasdaq: LHAI), an AI-driven real estate and fintech platform, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire 100% of the equity interests of Constant Investments, Inc., doing business as Mortgage One Group, a full-service mortgage lending company with operations across multiple U.S. states. Subject to customary closing conditions, the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, and is expected to close on or before July 1,2026.

 

This acquisition is expected to combine Mortgage One Group’s licensed lending infrastructure with Linkhome’s proprietary AI capabilities, with the goal of building one of the technology industry’s most integrated AI-powered platforms for real estate, mortgage origination, and consumer home financing.

 

Mortgage One Group operates through eight branch offices, holds mortgage lending licenses in 18 U.S. states (including eight currently active state licenses), has a team of approximately 30 loan officers and nine loan managers, and currently has an $18 million warehouse line of credit.

 

By bringing together Mortgage One Group’s established lending platform with Linkhome’s AI technology stack, Linkhome aims to deliver a faster, more transparent, and more scalable mortgage experience for homebuyers across the United States. Following the closing of the proposed transaction, Linkhome intends to deploy its proprietary AI across loan processing, underwriting assistance, borrower communication, and operational automation, with the goal of reducing friction throughout the home financing journey.

 

Building on Mortgage One Group’s existing 18-state license portfolio and eight active state licenses, Linkhome plans to apply for additional state licenses following the closing, with the long-term objective of expanding mortgage and housing finance operations nationwide. The combined platform is also intended to accelerate the nationwide rollout of Linkhome’s AI-powered Cash Offer and Buy Before Sell programs, which are designed to help homebuyers improve purchasing power and reduce financing-related delays in competitive housing markets. Together, these initiatives are expected to advance Linkhome’s long-term strategy of building a unified AI-powered platform across real estate brokerage, mortgage origination, and consumer financial technology.

 

 

 

 

“This is a defining moment in Linkhome’s journey to redefine how Americans buy, sell, and finance their homes,” said Zhen (Bill) Qin, Chief Executive Officer of Linkhome. “Mortgage One Group brings us a talented team, an established multi-state lending platform, and a foundation we believe is well-suited for the AI-driven future of housing finance.”

 

“By combining Mortgage One Group’s lending capabilities with Linkhome’s AI technology, we expect to deliver a faster, smarter, and more transparent mortgage experience — and to bring our Cash Offer and Buy Before Sell programs to homebuyers across the country,” Mr. Qin added. “We are committed to helping more Americans achieve the dream of homeownership.”

 

Additional information regarding the transaction will be set forth in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

 

Integration planning is currently underway, and the Company intends to provide further updates following the closing of the transaction.
