Our take

Flyhomes is a start-up that aims to simplify the house-buying process. Its easy-to-use website has been designed to help users search, buy and move in quickly, taking the stress out of the home buying experience.

Its cash offer lending product allows buyers to present a cash offer, and then pay back their loans directly to Flyhomes. If customers decide to back out of an offer, Flyhomes will buy the home instead. In 2021 the company announced that it has bought and sold over $2.6 billion worth of homes since its formation.

Flyhomes faces competition from Opendoor, another home iBuyer startup. Looking forward the company hopes to expand the platform to new locations. Currently, Flyhomes primarily operates out of West Coast markets, including Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego and Portland, as well as Boston on the East Coast.
