“Housing represents the largest monthly expense for over 100 million renters in the U.S., and yet consumers have never received any incremental value in return.

Bilt is quickly weaving itself into the fabric of the everyday consumer, and has the potential to become a household brand that covers the entire homeownership journey,”

said Harley Miller, CEO and Managing Partner, Left Lane Capital.
