SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (PRWEB) November 17, 2021
Deloitte today announced real estate technology platform HomeLight is the 167th fastest-growing company in North America, according to the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™ ranking of the 500 fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences, fintech, and energy tech companies in North America. HomeLight, listed on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 for the third year in a row, has experienced sustained growth at approximately 3x year-over-year, with annual revenue set to triple to more than $300 million in 2021.
HomeLight Chief Operating Officer Sumant Sridharan credits HomeLight’s sustained growth to the company’s unique agent-centered approach in proptech and the surging demand for its flagship financial products, HomeLight Trade-In™ and HomeLight Cash Offer™, from top real estate agents, homebuyers, and sellers across the country.
“At HomeLight, we empower top agents to compete and win in the rapidly changing world of proptech,” said Sumant Sridharan, HomeLight Chief Operating Officer. “Our Cash Offer and Trade-In products are widely recognized as best in class in real estate, and have enabled our rapid growth over the last few years.”
HomeLight is continuing to hire in markets throughout the country amid surging growth. HomeLight in October 2021 announced plans to hire up to 300 employees in the next 6-12 months based out of the company’s Scottsdale, Arizona headquarters. Scottsdale is the company’s largest office and serves as an operational hub for the company’s customer service, sales, and title and escrow divisions. The company in July 2021 announced it opened a regional hub in Tampa, Florida for HomeLight Closing Services™ with plans to grow to over 500 employees statewide.
