Goal: Proffer was created out of a need to further reinvent the real estate business with a peer-to-peer model allowing the user to make an offer on any property
Problem: Currently, there is no way to make an offer on any property in the U.S. that is not listed.
Solution: To create a native application that allows real estate buyers and sellers to communicate directly, or with an agent.
