Company Overview
Sundae’s mission is to help homeowners get the best outcome when selling a house that needs some love. For too long, the process of selling outdated and damaged houses has been difficult for sellers. Local property investors often capitalize on homeowner distress to purchase houses cheaply and resell them for huge profits.
Sundae is changing that by putting more of those profits back in the hands of homeowners. We’ve built a data-driven model to predict when sellers will need our help, a best-in-class sales and marketing team to reach them, and a trusted brand that drives organic growth through word of mouth and referrals. With scale and efficiency, we’re able to redistribute economic value to sellers, offering the most competitive price and becoming the largest buyer of homes that need love in the United States.
We are a Tier 1 Venture Capital backed company with product-market fit, scaling revenue, and a massive addressable market opportunity. Our team is composed of seasoned leaders from real estate and marketplace businesses and with significant high-growth company experience (Airbnb, Dropbox, Chime, LendingHome).
Joining Sundae means being part of the team that’s bringing compassion and transparency to the business of helping homeowners sell in their time of need. If you’re driven by making a positive impact on people’s lives and want to support our mission, we’d love to hear from you.

What We Do
Sundae’s mission is to help homeowners get the best outcome when it’s time to sell a house that needs some love.
For far too long, homeowners without the time or resources needed to get a house market-ready have been taken advantage of when it comes time to sell if the house needs some love. We think this isn’t fair and we started Sundae to change this.
Sundae offers an alternative to the unpredictability of the traditional real-estate agent sales process. With Sundae you sell as-is, on your timeline. That means you do no clean up, repairs, showings, or any work at all.
Sundae was founded by seasoned finance and operations executives who helped build industry-leading technology and marketplace businesses. Together our founding team brings 35+ years of experience in real estate investment.
But we’re more than a real estate company. We’re a marketplace looking to bring more value, confidence and convenience to sellers, when they need it most. Joining Sundae means being part of the team that’s bringing compassion and transparency to the business of helping homeowners sell in their time of need. If you’re driven by making a positive impact in people’s lives and want to support our mission, we’d love to hear from you. Check out our open positions at sundae.com/careers
