Below is our recent interview with Josh Ades, Head Of Marketing at DwellWell:
Q: Could you provide our readers with a brief introduction to your company?
A: DwellWell is an online platform for homebuyers that provides the most transparent, enjoyable experience through a guided process that includes education, a suite of decision tools, and connections to top real estate experts. DwellWell Super Agents meet high-intent homebuyers that are actively looking to make a purchase in their region. DwellWell creates delighted home buyers and successful real estate agents.
Q: Any highlights on your recent announcement?
A: DwellWell officially exits stealth backed by a 1.5 million dollar seed round led by the Female Innovators Lab by Barclays and Anthemis, and angel investors from organizations including Twitter, Reddit, Credit Karma, Kickstarter, HubSpot, and Tribe Capital.
Q: Can you give us more insights into your offering?
A: We’re taking a complicated and secretive process and making it much easier for first-time homebuyers to understand and navigate. Basically TurboTax for home buying––we take a painful, complicated process and break it down into easy steps, providing a home buying process inline with the buying experience modern consumers expect.
Q: What can we expect from your company in next 6 months? What are your plans?
A: We currently serve only California. In the next 6 months, you can expect rapid expansion throughout the US. On the product side, DwellWell will continue developing our suite of education and decision making tools, while also focusing on a mobile app to make the home buying process even more convenient for buyers.
Q: What is the best thing about your company that people might not know about?
A: The idea for DwellWell came about when Matt, our CEO, started looking for a home to buy. Like most modern buyers, he turned to the internet for support. But the information and resources he needed were scattered and inconsistent. This inspired DwellWell. DwellWell is designed to help empower homebuyers with equal access to knowledge, helping level the playing field. Real estate has long suffered from an imbalance of knowledge and access. We’re working to solve that.
