Have you heard of Zillow’s new home-buying program? 

The new home-buying program just launched in San Diego County and is in 16 other markets. The way the program works is homeowners can go on the Zillow website and then answer a few questions about the condition of their homes. If your home is eligible, they’ll send your cash offer within a few days, and you decide what’s next.

This seems to be the million-dollar question. The real estate sector has undergone a dramatic shift, thanks to tech giants like Zillow and Redfin. Many tech enthusiasts want to offer tech software solutions that cut out the middleman. 

Julie Sandler, managing director of Pioneer Square Labs Venture, seems to think that real estate professionals shouldn’t worry, as they simply offer too much value to the average homeowner. However, it’s important to start thinking about what you can contribute to the customer experience that a software solution can’t replicate.
