Much like selling your home the traditional way, buying a home can be just as stressful, uncertain and sometimes feel unattainable for many consumers. That’s why at Opendoor, we’re working to reinvent the entire consumer real estate experience, buying, selling, financing and all of the intricacies in between. Our vision is to turn a broken process into a seamless and modern digital experience that helps put homeownership in reach for everyone. Today, we’re pleased to announce that Mike Cieri has joined us as the new Vice President of Product for the Opendoor Buyer Team. Reinventing an entire category is an ambitious goal, but we know with the right vision, team and execution, we can make it a reality.
With today’s expansion news, Opendoor is now operational in 30 markets across the U.S. And as we continue to provide a simple, certain and fast way for 🏡 owners to sell their homes nationwide, we’re bringing iBuying to homeowners in St. Louis, Missouri for the first time! We’re also expanding our presence in South Carolina and Texas, empowering even more people with the freedom to move.
The real estate industry has hit the trifecta: inventory is low, mortgage rates are low and buyer demand is high. And today, we are reaching more sellers to make moving easy. We are expanding our buying capabilities across the U.S. to purchase a wider range of homes, enabling homeowners to move quickly and on their own timeline—which is especially important in today’s hot market.
✨ Employee Spotlight ✨ “Understanding the customer is in our team’s DNA.” In our latest Open Book blog, Sherry Wang, Data Science Manager, shares how her team uses different types of information to learn about and advocate for Opendoor customers.
Opendoor was founded on the idea that the modern real estate transaction should be built around the customer experience. We believe our investments in this and the people who support it are paramount to creating the future. We’re pleased to welcome Shannon Hodges as our new Vice President of Sales & Support.
