    As part of the Compass Offer & Transaction Management division, Glide’s mission is to make the home sale journey faster, simpler, and safer for real estate agents and their clients.

    The average real estate transaction includes dozens of siloed technology systems, hundreds of calls, emails and texts, and thousands of pages of documents – not to mention more fees than you will pay for anything else in your life.

    Why have we come to expect that it’s reasonable for such a huge and important transaction in one of the largest industries feel like a complete mess? We're here to fix it with intelligent software that takes you through each milestone using a step-by-step, guided expert system and is already being used to conduct over $75 billion in residential real estate transactions a year – and growing fast.

    Acquired by Compass in 2021, Glide has both consumer-facing and B2B-facing elements. We are revenue generating and have several goals to improve the entire real estate transaction process.
