There are potential drawbacks to the rise of iBuying. Research has shown that homeowners lose money by selling to an iBuyer. A MarketWatch investigation found that people who sold their homes to iBuying companies Opendoor, Zillow, Redfin and Offerpad earned 11% less than people who sold their homes on the open market.

About Me
- Chris B Johnson REALTOR®
- Chris B. Johnson REALTOR® Specializes in Luxury Estates and Home Auctions. Your home is probably the biggest asset you own. This is why you should hire a professional to guide you through all your real estate transactions. My goal is to help 24 to 28 families each year either buy or sell a home. I am NOT interested in Selling 100 or 200 homes a year because I would not be able to give each family the time, attention and energy they deserve. I believe in Quality, NOT Quantity.
