J. Dean Modir, 40, founded Zeego.ai, which launched two weeks ago as an alternative for California homebuyers comfortable doing much of the legwork in searching for a home.
Modir said his website caters to the tech-savvy homebuyer who can analyze data and conduct research independently, while serving as a complement to the homebuying ecosystem. He noted that most homebuyers will still need the support a real-estate agent provides.
“But I started to hear more and more people say, ‘Hey, you know, I already found this property myself, I toured it myself, and I really just need an agent to help me pencil it or get through the offer, maybe get the right forms in place, but I don’t really need that much help outside of that,’” Modir says.
