Operations
Marketplace Homes operates primarily as a broker on new home construction deals with large builders such as Pulte Homes and D. R. Horton in over 40 real estate markets. The company also works as a property manager for new home buyers that are unable to sell their existing homes. If those home buyers are unable to sell their house immediately, Marketplace Homes then functions as a property management company with a guaranteed leasing program.
Marketplace Homes offerings and services to clients include:
- Brokerage of new construction homes
- Third party property management
- Real estate brokerage for buying and selling homes
- Unique platform for touring and purchasing homes
ZipTours
ZipTours is hailed as the "biggest change the real estate industry has seen since the invention of online listings". Built to provide a user-driven experience for home buyers, ZipTours allows users to "see it, tour it, buy it" all from the mobile app. The ZipTours commercial shows the contrast for potential home buyers with a traditional real estate agent and potential home buyers utilizing the mobile app. In September 2015 alone, 1,000 individual ZipTours were conducted for both home sales and rentals. Future plans for ZipTours include licensing to other real estate agents, to both increase their capacity to serve their clients and ensure their continued safety as they show homes.
