Redfin now offers the search for rental properties on its platform, adding to the list of properties for sale. The search for rental properties is powered by RentPath, the Atlanta-based company Redfin that was acquired last year for $608 million in cash, the largest acquisition in history. RentPath owns Rent.com, Rentals.com and ApartmentGuide.com.
Redfin is best known for its home buying and selling services, but apartment rental is an attractive segment of the home market that the Seattle company has not yet reached on a large scale.
Redfin is also in the process of acquiring mortgage lender Bay Equity Home Loans for $135 million in cash and stock.
