Q: Could you provide our readers with a brief introduction to Tomo?
A: Despite decades of focus by companies looking to improve the real estate transaction experience, buying a home and all the important steps associated with it remain time-consuming, confusing and stressful. At the heart of this stress is the mortgage process. Tomo will be a digital mortgage company with a full platform to streamline home buying for both the consumer and their real estate agent. Tomo will use an approach that is human-driven, technology-enabled and ambitious in its scope.
Q: How did the business develop?
A: Tomo was created by Greg Schwartz and Carey Armstrong. Tomo’s team is dedicated to the philosophy of Omotenashi — anticipating the customer’s needs and meeting them before the customer is even aware they exist.
