The $50,000 Question: How Bōde is Fixing Home Selling
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Robert Price had built something remarkable. At Axia, he helped grow a multi-billion dollar fiber optics company from the early days of cloud computing. Then, when the company sold, he'd earned the right to step back and think about what mattered.
Instead, he wrote a $50,000 check.
At the time, Robert was selling a home and buying another at the same time. By the end of closing, after all the broker fees, commissions, and processing costs, he'd paid $50,000 for what felt like nothing; a few signatures and some paperwork, all tied to a system that hadn't changed in decades.
"That's when it hit me," Robert realized. "Everything about buying and selling a home is now digital. We shop online. We see listings online. We find each other online. But somehow we still need two brokers to close the deal."
That question became Bōde.
