Accessibility at TradeMyHome
At TradeMyHome, we believe that everyone should be able to search for a home online without limits. That means no matter who you are—or how you browse—you deserve a simple, easy, and helpful experience. That’s why we focus on accessibility every time we build or update our website.
We know that buying or selling a home can be stressful. Your online journey shouldn’t make it harder. Whether you’re using a screen reader, keyboard, mobile phone, or special device, our website should feel clear and usable. And if it doesn’t, we want to hear about it.
What Accessibility Means to Us
To us, accessibility means more than checking boxes. It means building an online space that works for everyone—every time they visit.
Some people may need:
- Larger fonts to see text clearly
- Text descriptions for pictures
- Simple layouts that are easy to read
- Support for screen readers
- Navigation without a mouse or touchscreen
Others may just want a smooth, fast, and clutter-free experience. We aim to provide both.
Our Promise to Every Visitor
We work to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, aiming for Level AA compliance. That may sound technical, but here’s what it means in simple terms:
- Text is easy to read with high contrast and clear fonts
- Images include text descriptions so screen readers can understand them
- Navigation is smooth with keyboard or touch-based browsing
- Forms and buttons are clearly labeled and easy to use
We check these items every time we make an update. When we launch new pages, features, or tools, we test them for accessibility. If something doesn’t meet our standards, we fix it.
How We Keep Improving
Accessibility is not a one-time job. It’s something we work on every week. We review site features, test performance, and listen to your feedback. Because technology and tools keep changing, we adapt our approach regularly.
Besides that, we train our team to spot issues early. We use tools that flag problems and help us fix them before they cause frustration.
Most importantly, we think about real people when we design. That helps us create a better experience from the start.

The short answer: everyone.
