Realoq, a real estate portal with a “multi-sided marketplace“ that connects consumers and service providers, has expanded its services to Florida, Georgia and North Carolina.
“Unlike industry stalwarts, Realoq’s free-to-use service offers a hand-picked and custom-vetted pool of local agents to provide home buyers and sellers with peace of mind, full transparency, and top quality,” Anvesh Chakravartula, founder and CEO of Realoq, said in a statement.
Realoq agents and brokers incur no upfront fees, no set-up fees and no monthly subscription fees. A Realtor referral fee, which is 25% of the overall commission, is paid upon closing.
Buyers and sellers also pay no fees to utilize the Realoq platform. The company said that its unified technology platform connects business-to-business and business-to-consumer channels into a marketplace with four key feature: listings, buy, sell and mortgage.
Founded last year, Realoq picked up $3 million in seed funding from TRK Ventures in November. It is also currently available in Texas, California, Idaho, Oregon and Washington.
