Award celebrates the companies at the forefront of property technology innovation who are fundamentally reshaping the residential real estate industry

Homes.com, a CoStar Group leading online residential marketplace, has been recognized as a 2025 Inman Best of Proptech Award Winner in the Consumer Experience & Marketplace Innovation category. The award recognizes Homes.com’s leadership in transforming the home search experience through technology and direct agent-to-consumer connection.

Homes.com is the fastest growing revenue product CoStar Group has ever launched, with over 26,000 Members, up nearly 150% since Q3 2024, and 7,000 Members joining in Q3 2025 alone. Throughout 2025, Homes.com has launched several new features, ensuring the portal is the most comprehensive, user-friendly platform on the market. This includes Smart Search, an AI-powered feature that allows users to search the way they speak, and Homes.com Boost, a digital marketing package designed to help homeowners sell their homes faster and for more. In September, Homes.com unveiled the industry’s largest builder-verified catalog for new construction, the first tool of its kind available at a national scale.

Homes.com is the first major U.S. real estate portal to focus on helping homeowners and agents leverage the marketing power of the internet to bring more potential buyers to their listings. The site boasts 115 million average monthly visitors as of the third quarter, and ensures that leads stay with the listing agent, helping them build their personal brand and secure more listings.

“Homes.com is redefining how Americans buy and sell homes by restoring trust and transparency to the process. We set out to build a platform that empowers agents and homeowners alike — giving them the tools, data, and exposure they need to succeed in today’s marketplace,” said Andy Florance, CoStar Group Founder & Chief Executive Officer. “Earning Inman’s Best of Proptech Award underscores our commitment to delivering technology that truly serves agents and consumers. At CoStar Group, innovation is only meaningful when it helps our customers thrive and Homes.com is doing exactly that.”
