Zillow has become an exclusive partner with D.R. Horton, the nation’s largest homebuilder by volume.
The partnership enables D.R. Horton homebuyers to sell their existing homes through Zillow Offers. D.R. Horton customers selling through Zillow Offers receive an extended closing timeline of up to eight months, and the flexibility to modify the closing date to better align both transactions.
“Buying a new home is an exciting time, and we’re proud to collaborate with the nation’s largest homebuilder to help people unlock life’s next chapter. We look forward to working together to offer a more seamless experience for our shared customers,” President of the Zillow Homes Division Arik Prawer said in a release.
“Zillow Offers puts sellers in control of their own transaction,” Prawer said. “In a time when social distancing is becoming a necessity, selling to Zillow Offers provides a safe and flexible way to transact so new construction buyers can focus on moving into their next dream home.”
D.R. Horton homebuyers who sell their home through Zillow Offers also may be eligible to receive cash credits at closing and free local moving services.
“We are excited to partner with Zillow to bring more convenience and flexibility to the homebuying experience,” D.R. Horton Chairman Donald Horton said. “This is a great opportunity to provide our customers with new options to streamline the process of selling their existing home, and help them move into their new D.R. Horton home more efficiently.”
