Better investing, better housing

Real estate has always been one of the most powerful ways to build wealth, and rental housing is how millions of Americans access the homes they need. For too long, both investors and residents were underserved by an industry that was analog, opaque, and resistant to change.

Doug Brien and Gary Beasley knew this well. After the 2008 financial crisis, they built Waypoint Homes and helped establish SFR as a legitimate asset class, and took it public on the NYSE in 2014. Gary then co-founded Roofstock to modernize how investors buy rental properties, and Doug co-founded Mynd to do the same for property management.

Roofstock expanded both organically and through strategic acquisitions, including RentPrep, Stessa, Streetlane Homes and Great Jones. In 2024, Roofstock and Mynd merged, combining transaction expertise with property management capabilities into a single platform. Today we serve every investor, from the individual managing their first rental to the institution operating at scale. Because when investors succeed and properties are well managed, everyone benefits.
