Trey has been a technology enthusiast his whole life.

He’s been a successful founder and helped build other successful startups in Birmingham.

Caroline is a seasoned professional in commercial real estate development.

While attending Samford University’s Brock School of Business, she watched how much downtown Birmingham was changing and was inspired to work in real estate.

“I realized how much real estate impacts our daily lives. It changes your restaurants, retailers and even living opportunities.”

The beginning of Homepoint

One day, the couple was using a car transaction app and were impressed with how simple and stress-free the process was.

With Trey’s background in technology and Caroline’s in real estate, they knew they could make a similar process for selling a home.

Thus, Homepoint was born.

Based at Innovation Depot, Trey and Caroline focus on creating transparency and efficiency in residential real estate with Homepoint.

“Homepoint empowers consumers with more autonomy while being more affordable, for one of the biggest transactions of their lives.”
