This is a very interesting startup. Best wishes for you guys and your team. What areas are you currently located in and why did you choose those areas as your pilot regions?
Also, the company reminds me of a key example used in The Automatic Customer, can't recall if it was a fictitious company or not, but the business model was extremely similar from what I can tell of Super's.
@seanbolak Hi Sean, We are headquartered in San Francisco, and we have launched in the Washington DC / Maryland area. See my post to @jkhallatl above regarding why we chose that market. Thanks!
I'm not sure this'd work in NYC. I just bought a coop in Brooklyn and everything is more complicated. @joreyramer have you investigated denser markets with shared walls, etc?
@nealrs Hi Neal, Buildings above a certain size commonly have commercial management of the property. For those buildings that do not have commercial management, we cover shared systems (e.g., heating, hot water heater) when all units are concurrently covered. I think this is great for condo associations that would otherwise have to build up larger capital reserves. Please submit your email and zipcode on our website (see "Live elsewhere?") to be notified when we come to your neighborhood! Thanks!

I can see home sellers including a year's subscription to Super with their homes as a buyer incentive.
@kkdub Totally agree. It's great for new homeowners, and it’s great for experienced homeowners, in particular those moving to a new neighborhood. Thanks for the comment!
Hi Everyone,
Jorey from Super here. Very excited to be out of stealth and share what we’re doing!
Super comes from my personal experience as a first-time homeowner. I love my home. I love my home equity. But I hate the home ownership. It takes too much time and money, and it's too unpredictable. Twenty years of online and mobile companies have failed to deliver the experience I'm looking for.
I want to help people enjoy the dream of home ownership without the drawbacks. I want to make expenses more predictable, prevent problems before they occur, and provide one place for any service you need. I want to give people a subscription that covers costs, helps you understand the maintenance needs of your home, and gives you one source to get things done right the first time.

Product Hunt members who subscribe this week get $100 in service rewards, which can be applied towards any home maintenance or service request!
I’ll be on Product Hunt all day to answer any questions.
Thank you Product Hunters!!!
I've lived these challenges myself - in fact right now I need help fixing wallpaper coming unglued, a leak in a bath that's literally gone on for months, among other annoyances. As we move towards reduced ownership of things like cars (uber) and vacation homes (Airbnb), I still believe people will own homes but want the convenience of these services for their primary residence. Great idea Jorey!
This is REALLY cool. As a huge home warranty advocate, I love the idea of a monthly subscription vs. being invoiced annually for something that's continually increasing, especially if there's a focus on quality service.
Jorey, I'm the co-founder of Casamatic, and we're simplifying home search by matching buyers to homes based on things they truly care about, like proximity to great activities, foods, and friends and family, and styles, etc. We're only in a handful of markets today but I'd love to see if there's an opportunity to work together.
