Supporting Key Workers
Key Worker; an employee who provides a vital service, especially in the police, health, or education sectors.
Roomee’s model of mass produced, mass customisable room solutions means that it can maximise a properties value through conversion and inclusion within the Roomee network.Roomee focuses on providing key workers with a range of solutions from short term lets through to product ownership.
Ownership in key locations becomes significantly more affordable one the occupancy yield from each building has been increased. A key worker can own their own Roomee as a starting rung on the property ladder, increasing roomee size or location as their equity grows or selling up and moving into a more traditional property.
Roomee is a real option for ownership within a carefully managed and extremely well designed HMO market.
