What's included +

Use it from day one. Own it on completion.

  • Full operational control of uny.homes from day one — DNS, MX, hosting, your brand
  • Lease infrastructure via escrow — no interest, no credit check. Via a licensed escrow service.
  • Final payment (month 60) transfers ownership in full
  • Same renewal cost (USD 7–20/year) once owned, no surprises

If circumstances change:

  • Late or missed payments are renegotiated case-by-case — we'd rather find a structure that works than terminate the agreement
  • Early payoff at any time, prorated against remaining balance

The lease price is for the asset. Optional extras (trademark, logo, advisory) are separate.

The Name

A three-letter name for shared living.

— A domain dossier can be sent on request.

uny.homes is rare — a three-letter coined brandable on a category-specific TLD. uny reads as the soft latinate root of unity, union, community — the family of words built around shared belonging. Paired with .homes, the URL announces the proposition in nine characters total: housing built on shared living, shared ownership, and shared community.

Three-letter domains on category-specific TLDs are the rarest in any registry. Short marks reduce cognitive cost (consumers register them faster); category-specific TLDs reduce semantic cost (no positioning paragraph required). uny.homes sits at this intersection — premium-tier across both axes simultaneously.

Where general proptech names compete on platform scale (Zillow, Trulia, Redfin), uny.homes positions itself in a distinct sub-vertical: shared ownership, co-living, multifamily, and community-housing. The category is growing fast — fractional-ownership platforms (Pacaso $1.5B), co-living operators (Common, Bungalow, Outsite), shared-equity homeownership programs, and multifamily-tech ventures all need names that signal shared scale rather than individual transaction.

Funded shared-housing ventures cluster in this sub-vertical. Pacaso (fractional ownership, $1.5B), Common (co-living, acquired by Habyt), Bungalow (co-living), Outsite (remote-work shared housing), Landed (shared-equity homeownership). uny.homes sits in this neighbourhood with one structural advantage: the brand-name itself signals the share, not the unit. The mark belongs to a category that doesn't yet have a defining brand.

The bundle includes the .com defensive variant. unyhomes.com protects against type-in confusion and provides a secondary identity for B2B or institutional partnerships. The name reads as cooperative on a co-living onboarding flow, a fractional-ownership marketplace, or a community-housing Series A pitch.

"uny"
as a mark
Three-letter coined brandable on a vertical TLD — short marks face higher scrutiny in trademark examination, but uny.homes as a composite (name + .homes) has stronger registrability than uny alone. Per EUIPO and USPTO practice, three-letter names paired with vertical-specific TLDs in distinctive class designations are routinely registrable. Full clearance recommended in Nice 9, 35, 36, 42 pre-launch.
"unity" /
"UNY"
(neighbours)
UNY exists as an acronym across multiple sectors (UNY Group retail, UNY Co. in Japan) — many of these in non-overlapping commercial categories. The .homes TLD anchors the brand in residential and shared-housing services, distinct from these neighbours. Clearance memo addresses class-boundary analysis.
Clearance Phonetic and orthographic neighbours mapped — including UNY retail brands, existing unity / community real-estate marks, and adjacent co-living platform names. A full clearance memo across requested classes and territories is delivered with the under mutual NDA.
UDRP / URS No history on record. Title warranted unencumbered at closing.

Limited Window

Or submit a sealed bid.

Periodically, uny.homes enters a private auction round — a time-bounded sealed-bid process. Submit your best-and-final offer by the closing date.

Bids are for the domain itself — or the brand protection bundle (uny.homes + unyhomes.com) if you'd like both. Optional services — trademark search, identity work — are quoted separately.

Why submit a sealed bid? +

A sealed-bid round is reviewed by xtr.name, with the right to accept, counter, or decline any offer — standard practice for any auction handling assets above placeholder value. The full process, including reserve mechanics and bid evaluation, is documented at xtrname.com.

01
Better terms. Sealed bids open conversation on price, payment structure, transfer timing, and included extras — not a yes/no on list price.
02
Privacy. Outright purchases via public marketplaces typically appear in public price databases. Sealed bids stay private between buyer and seller — useful for stealth launches and corporate consolidations.
03
Strategic standing. A compelling story — brand fit, brand credibility, planned use — can win the asset over a higher but less-targeted offer. Selection considers fit, not only price.

Is discretion available? Can we proceed under NDA?

Yes. Mutual NDAs are standard for stealth launches, consolidations, and rebrands. Buyer identity, intended use, and terms stay confidential.

How does lease-to-own work?

Fixed monthly payment via licensed escrow, with full domain control from day one — DNS, hosting, brand. Final payment transfers ownership. No interest, no credit check. Terms confirmed in writing at signing.

What's included with each path? What's not?

The domain, escrow-protected transfer, and white-glove support. No royalties, no recurring fees. Optional extras — trademark search, brand identity, name development — are listed separately at /services.

What documentation do you provide for due diligence?

Public fact sheet on this page in two minutes. Extended dossier (7+ pages) under NDA. Sale agreement, escrow instructions, transfer checklist at LOI.

What's the brand protection bundle? Why does it cost more?

How does the transfer process work, end to end?

1. Choose acquire, lease, or bid. 2. Pay — funds in escrow until verified. 3. Transfer to your registrar in 1–7 days. 4. Build.

Are there ongoing costs after purchase?

Standard .homes renewal — usually from USD 10 per year, paid to your registrar. No royalties, no platform fees.

How does the private auction work?

Sealed-bid window. Bidders submit best-and-final in writing. At close, xtr.name accepts, counters, or passes — highest bid is not the automatic winner. Same format as art and M&A.

Can I make an offer outside an auction round?

Yes. Acquire and lease are always available via the form or chat. Auction rounds are when competitive bidding is encouraged — not a barrier.

Who is the seller?

Listed by xtr.name by Fairlane Ventures — contracting entity for all transactions. Active in the identity industry since 2020. Title warranted unencumbered at closing; transfers via licensed escrow.
