Pacaso modernizes the generations-old practice of co-owning a second home, creating a marketplace that makes buying and selling easy, and adding professional management and technology to make scheduling dates and owning the home seamless and simple. Buyers considering a second home can tell Pacaso where they want to buy, how much they want to spend and how much time they expect to spend in the house. Pacaso and its real estate agent partners will help them find the perfect home and set up a professionally managed LLC uniquely designed for co-ownership. The buyer will purchase their desired share — for example, half of the home, which will guarantee them access to the home for half the year — and Pacaso will briefly purchase the remainder of the home, before reselling the remaining portion to vetted buyers. Pacaso will manage the property, and owners will use Pacaso’s mobile app to make scheduling easy and equitable.
Just provides auto insurance that is, well, more just. Instead of your rate being set by who you are - your age, zipcode and marital status - your rate is set by how you drive. This means that for the first time, there is a real financial incentive for people to make smart driving decisions. Unsafe driving doesn't lead to the possibility of an accident, it leads to the certainty of paying more on your insurance. For younger drivers, or those who might have been in an accident, or just happen to live in the wrong zipcode, this means better - perhaps dramatically better - rates. Just Auto Insurance launches in Arizona in October 2019.
