Opendoor Technologies

Selling a house the traditional way is slow and uncertain, and Opendoor was built to remove that friction. Founded in 2014 and based in San Francisco, the company is an iBuyer: it makes an instant cash offer on a home through its website, buys the property directly, makes light repairs, and relists it for sale, aiming to earn a spread plus fees on the turnaround. For sellers the appeal is speed and certainty; for Opendoor the risk is that it owns real inventory, so a falling or frozen housing market can leave it holding homes worth less than it paid. That exposure hit hard when mortgage rates spiked and transactions dried up, forcing the company to shrink. It went public in 2020 through a SPAC merger, and its results hinge on home prices, rates and how many houses it can profitably flip.
