In Colorado, there's a modern brokerage called 8z Real Estate that has become known for its collaborative work environment and home to top producing teams that support one another. And despite all the competition – after all, it is in RE/MAX's backyard – it's become a dominant player on Colorado's Front Range.
Most recently, 8z Real Estate garnered the attention of The Denver Post, which selected Boulder-based 8z Real Estate as the "Top Workplace" of 2017 for midsize companies in Colorado. And 8z and its founder Lane Hornung were also recently profiled in a Colorado Business Magazine story, "8z Real Estate: Purpose, alignment and trust."
But the most interesting part of the 8z Real Estate story is its spinoff, a sister company, called zavvie. The hot Colorado start-up was created based on the technology developed for 8z Real Estate agents, and it was recently feature in both the Denver Business Journal – "Boulder entrepreneur launches social media site for real estate agents" – and Boulder's Daily Camera story, "'Real estate 2.0?: Boulder's 8z spins off technology into new company zavvie."
Together, these firms share the same DNA, as both of its principals – Hornung and Stefan Peterson – are the chief architects of the business strategies for both firms, fusing decades of both real estate and technology experience into building these next generation real estate businesses.
Right now, both companies are only operating in Colorado, but the results of both these firms are impressive and worth watching.
