Redfin Launches Custom Listing Service for Home Builders

SEATTLE, Nov. 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Redfin (www.redfin.com), the technology-powered real estate brokerage, today announced Redfin Builder Services to help residential developers sell new homes and condominiums. Redfin Builder Services provides developers with a comprehensive range of tools and services to sell new homes faster and smarter, all built around the company's dedication to service that has earned Redfin a 97 percent customer satisfaction rate.

"Redfin Builder Services is one-of-a-kind in the marketplace," said Adam Wiener, vice president of new business and analytics at Redfin. "We are the only brokerage that can provide massive exposure to millions of buyers online, targeted email marketing capabilities and a highly trained local team of real estate professionals under a single roof."

Redfin leverages its network of hundreds of agents, access to Multiple Listing Service (MLS) sales data, and proprietary database of home-buyer preferences to provide its clients custom market research to inform product, pricing and marketing decisions. Based on these insights, Redfin brings together local real estate experts with marketing, social media and communications specialists to create an integrated sales and marketing program. Each program is tailored to the scale of the project, but starts with featured placement on Redfin's website and mobile applications, exposing those properties to millions of home shoppers each month.

Redfin also announced its first official Redfin Builder Services client, the Solo Lofts, a 20-unit green condo building in Seattle, to be built by Vancouver-based InHaus Development. Pre-sales begin in January 2014.

Redfin launched Redfin Builder Services after a successful sales effort at the Vannoy Park community in Atlanta, in which Redfin sold all 26 units in less than 10 months at 99 percent of the client's target pricing.

"Redfin's combination of extreme professionalism, customer-first mentality and technology worked magic for us," said Nick Halaris, partner, AH Capital, a Vannoy Park investor. "The entire project sold in record time and at prices higher than the market rate we anticipated."
