Potomac, MD (Newsworthy.ai) Thursday Oct 10, 2024 @ 3:00 AM Pacific —

Curbio, the leading pre-listing home improvement company for real estate agents and their clients, is excited to announce that it has been awarded Comparably’s Best Place to Work award for Happiest Employees. Comparably, a leading workplace culture and corporate brand reputation platform, recognized Curbio’s dedication to fostering a positive, engaged work environment as it advances it mission to transform the real estate industry through its fix first, pay-at-close home repair and renovations model.

Curbio is modernizing the traditionally obstacle-ridden home improvement industry. By enabling sellers to pay for home updates and renovations at the closing table, financial barriers to getting a home ready to list have been removed for sellers. Agents who work with Curbio no longer are required to serve as the project manager for their sellers, empowering them to focus on the business of real estate: winning more listings and serving their clients. This modern, full-service approach is possible thanks to Curbio’s team of dedicated, happy and loyal employees, who go above and beyond to serve their clients across the country.

At a time when many employees across all sectors consider happiness at work to be an elusive luxury, Curbio’s recognition demonstrates that a culture that prioritizes employee satisfaction is critical, good for business and the right thing to do for its valued team members.

“When employees are happy at work, they create a virtuous cycle of superior client service, excellent productivity, innovative thinking, and loyalty,” said Rick Rudman, CEO of Curbio. “Since our company was founded, we have ensured that our culture, benefits, and philosophies center on employee happiness and satisfaction. Our Curbio team members have incredible energy and dedication to focus on our mission, clients, and continued success.”

Curbio’s employee-centric culture prioritizes flexibility and happiness with standout benefits and perks including unlimited paid time off, remote work, comprehensive healthcare and mental health coverage for employees and their families, paid parental leave, as well as investment in financial security including competitive pay, 401(k) match, and stock options for all employees.

Curbio promotes camaraderie with in-person events held twice a year for its remote workforce. Employees are brought together from across the country to connect, share ideas, and build relationships in these company-wide meetings, which are followed by fun evening activities which deepen ties within and across teams.

Curbio introduced spring and winter breaks to encourage employees to be fully present with their loved ones and recharge during holiday periods. The company believes that for employees to be at their best, they deserve the flexibility to take necessary time off for vacation or personal appointments to balance their professional and personal lives.

Curbio prioritizes employee growth, providing opportunity and support for continuous learning and career advancement. Kyle Russell, who reflects on his five-year journey at Curbio where he began as a sales consultant and advanced to a manager, shares, “From the start, Curbio has been a supportive place where my efforts are rewarded. My career has grown thanks to the professional development opportunities I have been given and earned, which is a testament to the culture of success and happiness that the company has created.”
