Who We Are

Roots is redefining real estate investing with a never before seen resident-centric model. We’re totally reshaping the tenant-landlord relationship by offering residents the chance to not just rent but partner in the property they live in. This is not rent-to-own; this is the first ever own-while-you-rent program! Our innovative “Live In It Like You Own It®” program is about more than just providing a place to live; it’s about fostering a sense of community and financial empowerment. By intertwining investment opportunities and resident engagement we have proven that this model truly does do good by the residents, and performs quite well for our Investors. Roots is committed to making a positive impact and helping millions of people build wealth through real estate. We believe that a win-win ecosystem is the only type worth building!

Our Why

We fundamentally believe that everyone should have an opportunity to build wealth.  This belief is what guides our mission of giving everyone the opportunity to build wealth and secure their financial future through investment in real estate.

In pursuit of our mission we will help 1 Million people grow wealth by breaking down the barriers to real estate investment for the masses, and making real estate as easy to invest in as the stock market.
