Our story
Why we built
MatchPadd.
We built MatchPadd because the way people search for homes has not changed since the early 2000s — and the people looking for homes have.
Millennials and Gen Z are now the largest home buying generation in US history. They grew up on swipe interfaces. They live entirely on their phones. They discover restaurants, jobs, and people the same way: fast, visual, and on demand. But when it comes to finding a home — the most important thing they will ever buy — they are handed the same cluttered filter menus and desktop-era grid layouts that have existed for twenty years.
We thought that was worth fixing.
MatchPadd is home search rebuilt from the ground up for how this generation actually discovers things. Swipe through homes one at a time, full screen, exactly the way you interact with everything else you care about. Save the ones you love and come back to them whenever you want. When you're ready, message the agent directly inside the app — without filling out a form or bracing for a flood of calls.
We built this because we experienced the frustration ourselves and believed something better was possible. That belief has not changed.
