It is brokerage-agnostic, meaning it works with any brokerage. - **Consumer Services Suite**: A one-stop shop for consumers that streamlines buying, selling, maintaining, and investing in properties. Includes in-house mortgage brokers, title and escrow services, an insurance portal, and a home improvement network referral system. - **Brivity**: A CRM and marketing automation platform acquired by PLACE to support agent workflows. - **Remine**: A real estate data and analytics platform acquired by PLACE in April 2025. ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed - **Annual Revenue**: USD $85,000,000 (latest available) - **Total Funding**: USD $100,000,000 (Series A, led by Goldman Sachs Asset Management, November 2021) - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Goldman Sachs Asset Management (lead investor) - **Growth Signals**: - Employee headcount of approximately 350 people (+24% year-over-year) - Presence in 100+ locations across the United States and Canada - Acquisitions of Livian (Sept 2024) and Remine (April 2025) for $1.5M - Expanding into mortgage, title, insurance, and home improvement services ## Competitive Advantages - **Brokerage Agnostic**: Unlike many PropTech companies that tie agents to a single brokerage, PLACE works with leading teams regardless of their brokerage affiliation, solving a major pain point for top talent. - **Operational Offloading**: The platform handles back-office tasks (HR, accounting, legal, marketing) that are notoriously difficult for independent agents, allowing them to focus on client relationships. - **All-in-One Ecosystem**: PLACE is building a vertically integrated consumer experience (mortgage, title, insurance, home improvement) that creates a "one-stop shop" and deepens the agent-to-consumer relationship. - **Founder Expertise**: Founders Ben Kinney and Chris Suarez have built some of the most successful real estate organizations in the industry, giving the company deep domain credibility. ## Strategic Focus - **Vertical Integration**: Expanding the consumer services model to include mortgage, title, escrow, insurance, and home improvement referral networks to capture more of the real estate transaction lifecycle. - **Platform Expansion**: Deepening integrations across all stakeholders (agents, loan officers, title partners, inspectors, service providers) to create a unified homeownership experience. - **Data & AI**: Recent hiring for a Senior Product Manager, AI & Data, and the acquisition of Remine (data analytics) signals a push toward data-driven tools for agents and consumers. - **Talent Acquisition**: Active recruiting for both corporate HQ roles and on behalf of partner teams across the US. ## Why Work Here - **Culture & Values**: PLACE emphasizes a "Win Make Give" philosophy, a strong focus on teamwork, and a mission-driven approach to changing the real estate industry. The company has a high employer rating of 4.8/5.0 on LinkedIn (100 reviews), with particularly strong scores for Culture (4.9) and Work-Life Balance (4.8). - **Benefits & Perks**: - Flexible paid time off and 9 paid holidays - Company-subsidized health, dental, vision, and long-term disability insurance - 401(k) program - Wealth-building and goal-setting curriculum - Real estate license sponsorship (opens doors to investing, savings, and referral income) - Partnership with 60+ nonprofits and a company 501(c)(3), "A Giving PLACE" - **Work Policy**: The company is headquartered in Bellingham, WA, but has roles across the US and Canada. Specific roles may be remote, hybrid, or in-office; job postings should be checked for details. - **Engineering/Product Culture**: The company is actively hiring for product management (AI & Data, Point of Sale), technical delivery, and engineering roles, suggesting a growing tech team working on modernizing real estate infrastructure. ## Sources 1.
