Offerpad’s St. Louis market General Manager Brian Routt, a 20-year veteran in the real estate industry looks forward to appealing to consumers as well as industry professionals in the area. “The St. Louis market is a perfect fit for Offerpad’s Real Estate Solutions Center and the products and services we provide. In addition, through partnerships and collaboration with local real estate professionals such as agents, home builders and renovation contractors, we’re creating new, highly beneficial, and impactful business opportunities to give St. Louisans even better home buying and selling experiences,” said Routt.
Through Offerpad’s Agent Partnership Program in St. Louis and Kansas City, real estate agents can earn an industry-high 3% referral fee when they help clients with an Offerpad EXPRESS cash sale. Offerpad then works with local vendors to quickly prepare and return homes it purchases to the local inventory for new buyers. Area home builders can assist their new-home buyers through Offerpad’s Homebuilder Services program by removing the need or contingency to sell an existing home before purchasing a new-construction home.
As announced previously, Offerpad expects to round out its 2021 market expansion with the upcoming opening of its fourth Midwest market in Columbus, Ohio. The company debuted in the Midwest with the launch of Indianapolis, Indiana in July 2021. For a complete list of available Offerpad markets around the country, visit offerpad.com/locations.
