Better Home & Finance Announces Changes to its Board of Directors
Board changes support Better's execution against its strategic priorities and long-term growth objectives.
Daniel Lewis, Founder and Managing Partner of Orange Capital, has been appointed to the Company's Board of Directors. Mr. Lewis brings more than 30 years of investment and operating experience. He began his career at Citigroup before founding Orange Capital in 2005, where he continues to serve as Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Lewis is also a significant shareholder of Better.
"Daniel has spent his career helping companies sharpen their strategy, improve capital allocation, and create long-term shareholder value," said Vishal Garg, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Better. "As Better continues its transformation into an AI-powered mortgage platform, Daniel's experience in operational execution, capital markets, and regulated industries will strengthen our Board and help guide the Company's next phase of growth."
"Better's platform is redefining the mortgage experience by using AI and automation to make homeownership more efficient, transparent, and affordable," said Lewis. "What stood out to me is the discipline behind the Company's transformation. Better has built a differentiated technology platform while making the difficult operational changes necessary to position the business for profitable growth. I look forward to supporting the Board and management team as they advance the Company's strategy and work to create long-term value for shareholders."
"We're delighted to welcome Daniel to our Board of Directors," said Harit Talwar, Chairman of Better's Board. "His experience in governance, capital allocation, and operational execution will be a valuable addition to the Board as Better executes its strategy and work toward its 2026 objectives."
The Company also announced that David Barse stepped down from the Board of Directors, effective July 27, 2026, to pursue new opportunities. The Board thanks Mr. Barse for his dedicated service and valuable contributions to Better and wishes him continued success in his future endeavors. Mr. Barse's departure was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies, or practices.
