Our mission at Roam is to make homeownership 2x more affordable for Americans. Roam’s initial focus is to help buyers wind back the clock on interest rates by purchasing a home with a low-rate assumable mortgage, a type of loan where the buyer can take over the mortgage terms from the seller. All government-backed loans such as FHA and VA loans are eligible for assumption by law, and there are millions of these loans at rates below 4%. With a low-rate assumable mortgage, buyers can save up to 50% on monthly payments compared to buying with a traditional mortgage at today’s rates.
Roam helps buyers find these homes for sale with the first-ever listing platform for homes with assumable mortgages. In addition, Roam manages all steps in the assumption process, acting as a specialized transaction coordinator to quarterback the entire process end-to-end on behalf of buyer and seller to ensure they close on time.
As a Launcher, you’ll play a key role in growing Roam’s assumable marketplace across the U.S. This is a fast-paced, high-impact startup role where no two days look the same. To succeed, you need to be self-driven, highly analytical, and an exceptional relationship builder. You’ll handle everything from expanding partnerships and acquiring new brokers and agents to refining our launch playbook. If you thrive in a dynamic environment and love blending strategy with execution, keep reading!
