The feature allows users to review customer feedback, compare prices and connect with local contractors directly through the Redfin site or Android app.
“Millions of people will use Redfin to find a home this year, and our partnership with Thumbtack helps them care for that home long after they move in,” said Ariel Dos Santos, Redfin’s senior vice president of product and design.
“By recommending trusted pros for home improvement projects, we’re saving customers time and hassle while helping them maximize the value of their home. It’s just one way we make the homeownership journey smoother from start to finish.”
Integrated services aim to streamline the homeownership experience — particularly for those preparing to list their properties. As the housing market shifts in favor of buyers, Redfin agents say presentation matters more than ever.
“Today’s buyers are more selective about the homes they’ll offer on,” said Connie Durnal, a Redfin Premier agent in Dallas. “Nearly everyone is looking for something move-in ready, and if they think they’ll have to paint a room or replace a faucet, they may move on to the next home. That’s why I’m encouraging all of my sellers to go the extra mile and make their home the shining star.”
The collaboration also benefits long-term owners looking to complete seasonal maintenance or upgrades. Redfin users can access a list of trending local services, with Thumbtack’s artificial intelligence-based system matching them with appropriate professionals.
“We’re excited to partner with Redfin to support homeowners through their entire home journey — from the buying and selling process to managing, maintaining, and improving their homes,” said Michael Kim, Thumbtack’s vice president of strategy and business development.
