Movoto Real Estate Moves Into Columbus

Movoto, an online real estate brokerage based in San Mateo, CA, is bringing its home-buying experience to Columbus, OH as part of its $20 million expansion to become the first brokerage to operate nationwide. As of November, Movoto is now in a dozen new markets and its growth will continue into January, 2015, covering 30 new Multiple Listing Service (MLS) regions.
Prospective home buyers in Columbus can now use Movoto to research homes for sale in the area, helping guide them to make an informed home purchasing decision.
Buyers also have free access to the Movoto Certified Agent network of top local real estate agents. Experts in the local market, Movoto Certified Agents are hand-selected and can never pay to be certified. This sets Movoto apart from other real estate sites including Zillow and Trulia, who promote the highest bidder. Movoto firmly believes that home-buyers need to be paired with the best agents to make purchasing a home as easy as possible
This year, more than 60 million U.S. residents have used Movoto to search for information about cities and town across the nation. These tools include unique and useful content, such as Movoto’s ranking of best places to live in Ohio.
“We’re excited about bringing a better home buying experience to the Columbus community,” said Mark Brandemuehl, COO of Movoto. “As we begin serving the Columbus area we’re committed to delivering a great all-around experience for future homeowners in Ohio.”
Movoto’s expansion will aid consumers in Michigan, Kentucky, Idaho, Wisconsin, Indiana, Tennessee, California, Ohio and South Carolina.
