Is Fathom (FTHM) stock Halal?
September 2026 AAOIFI screening result for Fathom Holdings, Inc. (FTHM): non-permissible income, pass. Interest-bearing investments, pass. Interest-bearing debt, fail. Preference shares, pass. Fathom Holdings, Inc. is not currently Shariah compliant. Re-screened monthly against AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21.
Fathom is a technology-driven real estate services company that operates in the United States. Primarily, the company strives to transform the real estate process by offering cloud-based, yet highly personalized brokerage services. Fathom provides a unique model that empowers real estate agents through higher commission splits, cutting-edge technology, and expansive professional support, which, in turn, benefits both agents and their clients. By leveraging a proprietary software platform, Fathom streamlines transactions, reduces costs, and enhances agent productivity. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Fathom stock Halal?
Is Fathom Shariah compliant?
Real estate begins from a strong position in Shariah screening: buildings and land are permissible assets. What AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 examines for Fathom is the mortgage financing behind the portfolio, capped at 30% of market capitalisation, and whether tenant income includes impermissible sources beyond the 5% ceiling.
Does Fathom pass the business activity test?
The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: Fathom currently fails the interest-bearing debt screen, so the overall verdict is not compliant regardless of the business itself. The watch item is the tenant roll: rental income from impermissible businesses counts against the 5% ceiling.
Is Fathom's income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Fathom's income from non-permissible sources stays below 5% of revenue in the September 2026 screening.
Does Fathom meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?
Not in full. Interest bearing debt currently exceeds the 30% cap, while the other ratio stays within it. One breach is enough to fail the screening; the ratios are reassessed monthly under our Shariah Supervisory Board.
