Katie Hill is not your typical real estate destroyer. She’s not trying to kill the MLS, start another property portal, or get rid of agents. In fact, she is trying to help them.
In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, Unlisted CEO Hill discusses a bold new platform that connects buyers and potential sellers before they go on the market.
Hill’s experience in direct mail, digital marketing, and startup advising puts him in a unique position to identify significant opportunities in the market. Those are homeowners who are still looking to sell.
Choosing private allows buyers to express interest in any home in the United States, not just homes for sale. Homeowners can see who is interested, update their home profile, and respond when ready. This is a gentler early conversation that captures the “gray area” between “just thinking” and “ready to sell”.
Unlisted isn’t trying to replace real estate agents. It will give them another entry point into the conversation with consumers before they are ready to list.
