Redfin debuts its brokerage services in southern Maine

Seattle-based real estate brokerage Redfin announced today the debut of its home-buying and selling services in southern Maine.

The Redfin model combines advanced technology with full-service local agents who are paid salaries rather than commissions, receive benefits and earn bonuses based on customer satisfaction, according to a press release announcing the company’s entry into the southern Maine real estate market. All reviews for every Redfin agent are published on their online profiles.

Redfin agents will be available to help people buy and sell homes in Portland, Cape Elizabeth, Kennebunk, Biddeford, Augusta and the Lakes Region; Redfin’s website and mobile apps now include all agent-listed homes for sale in those areas, the release stated.

Julie Davis, described in the press release as most recently working as a residential agent with RE/MAX, will oversee Redfin’s business in southern Maine.

“The Northeast has a rich history and lots of opportunity for growth, and Maine is a prime example,” Alex Coon, Redfin’s market manager, said in the release. “ We are excited to put roots down in the southern coastal cities where local industries and a culture friendly to small businesses have created strong real estate markets. We plan to grow our business north from there.”

Redfin was founded in 2006 with the mission to make home buying and selling better for consumers, and has steadily expanded from Seattle to more than 50 major U.S. cities.
