Redfin finally comes to the IE

I don't know if anyone else noticed but you can now buy a home in the IE using Refin. They finally have agents in the IE. You don't save a ton going through Redfin but the rebate is enough on an average house to buy a nice flat screen TV or a washer and dryer. They are still RE agents though so you still need to watch out for number one, cause they sure are not going to.

Yes - I did notice this - I had to take a second look the other day when I was on Redfin because I had not noticed this before.

Also have seen lately Short Sales listed twice if a price change has occured...kinda some weird stuff going on these days on Redfin - but I love the site - I can actuallu do an Aerial and actually see the house and the street - has helped detour me from some homes.

Hello, Steve from Redfin here. The change you noticed is that we've opened up our business to partner agents in some areas that we do not serve directly. These agents do not work directly for Redfin but have agreed to abide by our customer service standards and practices. You can read our CEO, Glenn Kelman's post about the change here:
