Copywriter

Who We Are Roots is redefining real estate investing with a resident-centric approach that flips the traditional tenant–landlord model on its head.

Through our first-of-its-kind Live In It Like You Own It® program, residents can build wealth while they rent- partnering in the very properties they call home.

This isn’t rent-to-own; it’s a fundamentally new way to participate in real estate.

We believe everyone deserves a real path to wealth, and that belief drives everything we build.

By removing barriers and making real estate investing accessible to everyone, we’re on a mission to help 1 million people grow their financial futures.

And the model works- creating a win-win ecosystem where residents thrive, investors perform, and communities strengthen.

We’re scaling fast, and we’re just getting started.
