reAlpha Tech Corp. (“reAlpha” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: AIRE), a
real estate technology company developing and commercializing
artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies, today launched the
enterprise version of its commission-free AI homebuying platform.
reAlpha Enterprise will specifically cater to corporate relocation
programs. This strategic initiative targets the $25 billion
employee relocation market by offering cost savings for both
employers and employees.1
“reAlpha Enterprise addresses a critical market
need by eliminating buy-side real estate commission expenses and
bringing the entire process into one place,” said Giri Devanur, CEO
of reAlpha. “By leveraging our commission-free real estate
platform, we aim to provide partnered companies and their employees
with a seamless solution to homebuying, which many Americans
identify as the most stressful life event.”2
Through the elimination of traditional buy-side
real estate commissions, employees can save up to 3% of the
purchase price on their home. If the seller of the home has already
agreed to pay the buy-side agent commission, reAlpha will refund it
to the buyer in the form of a closing cost credit, which they can
use to increase their purchasing power.
Mr. Devanur continued, “reAlpha Enterprise goes
beyond just savings by offering a complete relocation ecosystem.
Our platform integrates essential services including title,
mortgage, and closing support, while our in-house licensed agents
provide no-obligation assistance throughout the process.
Companies can deploy reAlpha Enterprise without
implementation fees or complex HR integration. The platform
provides employers with management dashboards and custom landing
pages, while offering employees AI-powered school and moving
recommendations.
About reAlpha Tech Corp.
reAlpha Tech Corp. (Nasdaq: AIRE) is a real
estate technology company developing an end-to-end commission-free

About the reAlpha Platform
reAlpha (previously called “Claire”), announced
on April 24, 2024, is reAlpha’s generative AI-powered,
commission-free, homebuying platform. The tagline: No fees. Just
keys.™ – reflects reAlpha’s dedication to eliminating traditional
barriers and making homebuying more accessible and transparent.
reAlpha’s introduction aligns with major shifts
in the real estate sector after the National Association of
Realtors agreed to settle certain lawsuits upon being found to have
violated antitrust laws, resulting in inflated fees paid to
buy-side agents. This development is expected to result in the end
of the standard six percent sales commission, which equates to
approximately $100 billion in realtor fees paid annually. The
reAlpha platform offers a cost-free alternative for homebuyers by
utilizing an AI-driven workflow that assists them through the
homebuying process.
Homebuyers using the reAlpha platform’s
conversational interface will be able to interact with Claire,
reAlpha’s AI buyer’s agent, to guide them through every step of
their homebuying journey, from property search to closing the deal.
By offering support 24/7, Claire is poised to make the homebuying
process more efficient, enjoyable, and cost-efficient. Claire
matches buyers with their dream homes using over 400 data
attributes and provides insights into market trends and property
values. Additionally, Claire can assist with questions, booking
property tours, submitting offers, and negotiations.
Currently, the reAlpha platform is under limited
availability for homebuyers located in 20 counties in Florida, but
reAlpha is actively seeking new MLS and brokerage licenses that
will enable expansion into more U.S. states.
