Helping build
businesses and careers.

Our Story

Wreno was founded in 2021 by Charlotte Schell and Mark Barton, two former Zillow employees with extensive experience in business and real estate.

The idea behind the company first came when the two were approached by a client who had just purchased 3,800 homes in a major US city, all of which needed home evaluation, basic repair and maintenance work. The problem? The company only had enough employees to handle the work for just three homes.

It occurred to both Mark and Charlotte that there were likely thousands of people across the country who would be interested and capable of taking on these simple projects. People who were already familiar with the gig economy and enjoyed the flexibility of working their own hours. Why not connect these individuals with companies that need extra help completing home evaluation and maintenance tasks?

And so Wreno was born. Today, assisted with machine learning and our end-to-end software solutions, we provide faster and more accurate home evaluations and data collection at scale while optimizing fragmented local trade businesses to provide adjacent repair, maintenance, and renovation services - and we’re growing all the time!

Let's grow together.

We’re currently looking for individuals to take on home evaluations and other basic repair and maintenance tasks. We offer great pay, training for in-demand skills and flexible work hours. We’re also actively recruiting Trade Partners who are looking to grow their business. Join us today and let’s grow together.

Our Mission

Currently, the US home repair and maintenance (R&M) workforce is declining at an unprecedented rate, despite the fact that by 2030 the top ten companies alone are expected to spend $3.2 billion dollars a year on routine maintenance and simple renovations.

Wreno is tapping into this underserved market via an integrated online platform. We connect real estate companies with underemployed individuals (Wrenners) and local businesses (Trade Partners). Wrenners receive on-the-job training, making them a unique and versatile workforce, while Wreno Trade Partners gain reliable and profitable new business. Meanwhile, our full suite of technologies allow real estate companies to more efficiently recruit, onboard, train, and deploy their own internal home evaluation professionals and vendors at scale.

Our mission is to leverage technology to help companies continue to build and service homes, while at the same time making the trades a desirable career path for the next generation.
