Hi, we’re Homely!
We make real estate easy.
We help real estate professionals unlock the potential of “homely” homes. We source properties from agents, remove the complexities that make selling distressed houses difficult, and provide renovation ready properties to real estate investors. When we do what we do best, agents, investors, and homeowners are able to do what they do best.
Why Homely?
Homely is modernizing the way the world transacts real estate.
The U.S. housing stock is aging. The number of homely homes is rising.
80% of US single-family houses are at least 20 years old. More than half are over 50 years old.
Families need the freshly renovated, move in ready, fully financeable homes that investors provide.
The U.S. needs 5.24 million additional homes to meet the demand of interested home buyers. By fueling investors, Homely offers more families access to freshly updated homes that are fully financeable.
Traditional listing methods are archaic and not designed to sell homely homes.
The MLS was designed in the late 1800’s (before radio broadcasting and vacuum cleaners were created) to mass markets properties that have mass appeal. Selling a homely home on the MLS is slower and requires significant up-front investment to prepare, promote, and present a house. Homes listed come with no certainty of selling or guarantee that the investment will pay off.
Agents are under supported and unnecessarily removed from the sale of homely homes.
Most ibuyers or distressed property purchasers remove the agent to cut transaction costs. With Homely, the agent is always in control and involved in every transition. Agents working with Homely own the client relationship and represent us on multiple sides of each transaction.
People that own homely homes often need the most support.
Owners of homely homes are often dealing with a problematic property, a complex situation, a major life transition, or a tight timeline. People wouldn’t make medical decisions without a doctor or legal decisions without a lawyer. When selling a home and making a critical financial decision, Homely ensures homeowners get expert real estate support from agents to ensure the best possible outcome.
Real estate investors need renovation ready, certified properties to scale.
Most investors lack the time, expertise, or desire to source deals. Homely provides a steady stream of opportunities so investors can do what they do best – fix and flip properties.
