OJO Labs brings on mellohome CEO Chris Heller as new CREO

July 24, 2019

Former CEO of loanDepot's online lending platform, mellohome, has left the company to join OJO Labs, a proptech startup, as its new Chief Real Estate Officer (CREO).

Heller’s new responsibilities as CREO include “shaping strategies, creating a cohesive structure between real estate professionals and OJO, and accelerating adoption in the industry.” In 2018, he served as a board member of OJO Labs when the firm agreed to make loanDepot its mortgage provider.

Before OJO, Heller was the CEO of residential real estate brokerage Keller Williams, where he enhanced the company’s technology strategy.
