Staff Reports

Ebby Halliday Companies has entered a marketing partnership with Curbio Inc., the fast-growing real estate technology company that specializes exclusively in pre-sale home renovations. Under the agreement between Curbio and Ebby Halliday, which includes Dallas-based Ebby Halliday Realtors, Dave Perry-Miller Real Estate, and Fort Worth-based Williams Trew, Curbio will provide agents with an array of print, digital, and live content with which they will educate their seller clients on the benefits of renovating before selling their homes.

Curbio uses an array of proprietary technology and other tools to deliver on-demand, pre-sale home renovation to Realtors and their sellers. Innovations such as same-day estimates, real-time video updates, and virtual walk-throughs enable the company to complete projects faster than traditional home improvement companies, resulting in quicker sales and greater proceeds for sellers. Curbio defers payment for renovations until the home is sold, with no deposit or finance charges. Partnerships with major real estate brokerages like Ebby Halliday Companies support Curbio’s strategic decision to work only with homeowners who are represented by a licensed agent. Realtor referrals account for 100 percent of Curbio’s business.

“Ebby Halliday Companies takes pride in continuing to innovate, adding new tools and services that meet agent and market needs and ultimately provide a preeminent experience for our clients,” said Randall Graham, vice president and director of marketing, Ebby Halliday Companies. “Adding Curbio to our arsenal of sales tools is exactly the type of service that sets our agents and company apart. Having a partner like Curbio helps our clients decrease days on market and increase their proceeds at closing.”

“We’re excited to partner with Ebby Halliday Companies,” said Curbio VP of Marketing Rikki Rogers. “High-performing agents know that bringing real value to their clients is what makes them a true partner. It’s clear that Ebby Halliday understands the importance of equipping their agents with tools needed to provide a personalized experience ensuring their clients always receive the best service.”
