Our values
Golden rule
Whether we`re dealing with colleagues or customers, we follow the golden rule, treating others the way we want to be treatedIt`s a simple rule, but it`s also significant: we don`t prioritize money or growth over people, and we practice empathy at every opportunity.
Calm focus
We work in tech and build solutions for real estateBoth are fast-paced and stressful industriesSo it`s important that we focus on the larger objective rather than rushing from one task to the nextIf something is out of scope, we say `no.` if something feels rushed, we pump the brakesThis calm focus helps us create solutions our customers love.
One team, one dream
Big problems require big solutionsWe look at our customers` experience holistically, and recognize that solving them requires collaboration across teamsThis approach extends to cooperation among our three affiliate companies — homeward, homeward mortgage, and homeward title — and results in a better homebuying experience.
