It’s only March and so much has already happened in the world of real estate tech. Here’s a recap of some of my research and insights so far, which I consider some of my best work.
IBuyer momentum is building, even with Zillow’s exit from the space.

Brokerage disruptors are growing exponentially and gaining market share in a hot housing market.

Zillow, recovering from the demise of Zillow Offers, unveiled an audacious new growth strategy.

Power buyers continued their national expansion, and I tracked the big movements as momentum builds in mortgage disruption (and somewhat predicted the slowdown at Knock).
