Redfin Corp.
REDFIN Corp. was founded by software engineers, we run the country's #1 most-visited brokerage website and offer a host of online tools to consumers, including the Redfin Estimate. We employ real estate agents that represent people buying and selling homes in over 90 markets throughout the United States and Canada. Our mission is to redefine real estate in the consumer's favor. In a commission-driven industry, we put the customer first. We do this by pairing our own agents with our own technology to create a service that is faster, better, and costs less. Since our launch in 2006 through 2018, we have helped customers buy or sell more than 170,000 homes worth more than $85 billion.
Vision
Redfin has built a counter-cultural culture, one where software engineers are humble not entitled, where top-producing agents are service-driven not just sales-driven, where the two halves of our business can work together as one. Service is fundamental to our everyone-sweeps-the-floors ethos. Our executives serve our employees, our employees serve our customers.
Mission
Redefine Real Estate in the consumers favor
Additional Culture Details
Redfin got its start inventing map-based search.Everyone told us the easy money was in running ads for traditional brokers, but we couldn’t stop thinking about how different real estate would be if it were designed from the ground up, using technology and totally different values, to put customers first. So we joined forces with agents who wanted to be customer advocates, not salespeople. Since these were our own agents, we could survey each customer on our service and pay a bonus based on the review. We deepened our technology beyond the initial search to make the home tour, the listing debut, the escrow process, the whole process, faster, easier and worry-free. And we gave customers more value, not just by saving each thousands in fees, but by investing in every home we sell, by measuring our performance and improving constantly.This is how real estate would be if it were designed just for you, because, well, it was.
