Ramping up their market coverage by a multiple of 5 within 2 years seems a VERY ambitious plan, and yet this is a gamechanger fintech firm.

The firm's differentiation is stated on their website as follows:

"Traditional home sale

  • List on the market for an average 50 days until closing
  • Risk of buyer financing falling through
  • Hidden fees and upfront costs

House flipper

  • Sell instantly, but well below market value
  • For distressed properties needing major repairs
  • Home is resold for a large profit

Opendoor

  • Close in just a few days at a competitive price
  • No listing, showings, staging or stress
  • Transparent fees and pricing"

One of the most unique features is the ability to buy and sell a home very quickly. While the fees are 6.5% on a sale, the transaction can close within 5-60 days, and doesn't require realtor showings, home staging, overlap on closings of other properties, etc. In short, it's a HUGE time-saver and Opendoor also takes on the additional responsibility of finding another home-buyer.
