Proptech startup Homie expands presence in St. George, Utah

Proptech startup, Homie, is expanding into St. George, Utah to help residents buy and sell their homes.

Expansion plans include opening a branch office and increasing the number of real estate agents assigned to the area, thereby making the buying and selling of a home in Washington County simple, enjoyable and affordable for area residents 

As one of Utah’s largest real estate brokerages, Homie has evolved and expanded its business model since launching in Salt Lake City in 2016. Consumers can now benefit from both a dedicated agent and mobile app to help them search for homes online and request tours.

“We are making more investments in Washington County to give consumers an alternative to the high commission, traditional real estate model,” said Johnny Hanna, Homie’s CEO and co-founder. “With Homie, you’ll get a dedicated local agent to help you sell your home for a low flat fee. Buyers get up to $5,000 in refunds when they use a Homie agent to tour and buy any home on the market.”

Hanna added that their mission at Homie is to “put money back in the pockets of consumers in Dixie.”

Over 64.6% of homes in Washington County are owned, not rented, and 38% of those residences have been built since 2000. Washington County median home prices have reached $354,000, representing a 35.6% increase over the past five years.
