Redfin first launched its home buying and home selling services in 2006. Glenn Kelman is the CEO.

In Missouri, Oregon, and Tennessee, state law prevents them from offering a refund to homebuyer
Many of the local agents hate redfin. I never knew why exactly. I know one thing for sure. When I look at their listings on the MLS, at least they do one of the best jobs, providing professional photos so at least buyers agents have an idea what the home is like before they waste their time with it. That's more than 99% of agents here would do, with their crappy low quality cell phone pics.
