Technology-Powered Real Estate Brokerage Redfin Expands Home-Buying and Selling Services to Murrieta

 Redfin announced yesterday the expansion of its home-buying and selling services to Murrieta. This means a dream-team of local Redfin agents can now serve homebuyers and sellers in the greater Murrieta/Temecula area including Lake Elsinore, Canyon Lake, Murrieta, Winchester, and Temecula.

Funny thing is, Murrieta already feels like home, since searchable properties on our website and mobile tools have been available to consumers there since 2007. Not to mention, Southern California is one of Redfin’s most successful regions company-wide. More good news is that Murrieta's local housing market recovery is finally in full swing, with home prices up 35 percent from last year, and home prices in the Inland Empire up 23 percent. The area was especially hard hit with the burst of the real estate bubble, and is just now catching up with gains in the greater Los Angeles market that started last year.

For an opportunity this fabulous, you need a great manager. So we’re proud to announce that Murrieta is in the highly capable hands of Norco native and seasoned Redfin agent, Paul Reid. Over the last two years, Paul has been based in Orange County, and helped more than 50 Redfin homebuyers and sellers have the best possible home-buying and selling experience possible. If the name sounds familiar, it’s probably because Paul has become recognized as an expert on the local and national real estate markets, frequently quoted in the L.A. Times, Wall Street Journal, and Fox Business, to name a few.

In his new role as Redfin’s Market Manager for Murrieta and the greater Inland Empire area, Paul leads a team of superstars, aka Redfin agents, who are paid a salary and bonuses based on customer satisfaction ratings.

The addition of Redfin agents also means that Murrieta consumers now have access to a new array of Redfin’s home-buying tools including Offer Insights, details from Redfin agents about what it takes to win a bidding war in a given neighborhood, Mobile Tour Scheduling, a tool on Redfin’s iOS app that allows homebuyers to use their smartphones to request in-person home tours with a Redfin agent, and Deal Room, which helps clients and their agents coordinate the tasks necessary to complete home purchase transactions. Home-sellers can now access Redfin’s Listing Dashboard, where they can track online and in-person traffic to their listing and compare it with nearby similar homes for sale.
