History
Launched in April 1999, HomeGain was created to meet the needs of home sellers previously not serviced by the Web. We developed a site that offers unique tools, checklists, calculators, powerful editorial and personalized advice to help homeowners make the most of their home-selling experience. Our core offering, unique on the web, is the ability for home sellers to screen and identify qualified, competitive Real estate agents. The success of our product offering led us to expand this to home buyers. The result is a comprehensive online service for both homeowners and Real estate agents designed to facilitate a homeowner's transactions while saving valuable time and resources.
