What is the problem you found?

How might we make it easier for young mums to get access to affordable housing?

Customer / Problem

The problem we have identified is that is difficult for young mums to find safe and affordable housing. Some of the challenges they face are lack of affordable rental properties, bias from real estate agents and rentals that are not suitable for young mums and children and in safe locations.

Our customers are your mums and parents aged between 14 - 25 living in the La Trobe Valley

What Is Your Solution?

Our solution is to create the "Young Parents Real Estate Agency & Village". A safe online community with access to affordable housing in a safe village with additional health services, support and products for young mums.

The Young Parents Village will be a gated community that provides affordable and safe rental properties , child care facilities and additional support service.

The YPREstate Agency will develop an app where Young mums can connect and  find support. Features will include; available rental properties,  payment planning support, child care support and information on services such as welfare support, electricity and gas.
