The Company
Perch is transforming the way people buy and sell their homes. Simplifying it, to the way it should have always been; fair and true to market, straightforward, easy. Every year in the U.S., $1.5 trillion of single family residences transact, generating over $120 billion of fees in a process that has changed little in decades. For the average American, the home purchase and sale process takes months, creates anxiety and is filled with uncertainty and hassle.
Perch offers a modern alternative, making one of life's biggest decisions -- the sale and purchase of a home –so stress free, fair and simple that people cannot imagine any other way.
Perch is headquartered in New York City, has 100+ employees and has grown 10x year over year. We have raised $250 million in financing from top tier investors including: Firstmark, Accomplice, Navitas and Juxtapose.

The CRO at Perch will be a critical member of the leadership team, driving our revenue growth and leading an inside and distributed outside sales team. The CRO will be based in either our New York City or Austin, TX offices and will report to the CEO, Court Cunningham.
The sales team at Perch consists of consumer-facing real estate agents who support our clients in- person as well as our Customer Experience team who supports them via phone/email/SMS. Many of our customers cite their experience with their agent (Perch Local Market Experts) and Customer Experience associates as the top reason they’d refer us to a friend.
