The word ‘home’ means a lot of different things to many different people.
For some, it’s a sanctuary away from the busy, hectic outside world – a place to leave your troubles at the door and decompress. For others, it’s the first step toward realizing the dream of owning their own place. For more still, it’s the place where their happiest memories live – the place where they all come roaring back to life. There’s no place like it.
We believe in Homes not Houses at Offerpad. The term ‘house’ lacks imagination and simply refers to a piece of property. The term ‘house’ barely scratches the surface in terms of the significance we associate with this one-of-a-kind place. It falls criminally short of providing all due respect to your bold interior design sensibilities. It takes the wind out of the sails of that paint job you undertook in the guest room last summer your wife described as “adequate”. No, the term ‘house’ would never do when describing the special place where you drove your firstborn back from the hospital or binge-watched The Office for the umpteenth time. Home – now that’s what we’re talking about.
Why are we so passionate about the semantics on this one? Because we think it’s necessary to appreciate the significance of a ‘home’ when you’re in this business. When you request an offer on your home, we understand there’s an untold value behind your home that can’t be wholly represented by dollars and centers. And when you choose to work with Offerpad to buy or sell that home, the magnitude of the decision is not lost on us. This is a milestone in your life, something worth celebrating. To be frank, we’re honored to accompany you on this journey (whenever you’re ready) because our people truly grasp what ‘home’ means to you – everything.
What does home mean to us at Offerpad? We asked around and received some pretty colorful responses. Here’s a visual representation of the feedback we received from our team members.
