Image
Both real estate firms blame cooling housing market and rising inflation Image Source Two well-known real estate companies fired hundreds of people on Tuesday because they expected home sales to slow down across the country and interest rates to go up Redfin and Compass, two companies that make software for the real estate industry, each let go of more than 900 employees. Glenn Kelman , the CEO of Redfin, said in a blog post that the company is letting go of about 470 workers, or about 6 percent of its staff, because demand in May was 17 percent lower than expected. "We raised hundreds of millions of dollars so we wouldn't have to let people go after just a few months of uncertainty," Kelman said. "But mortgage rates went up more quickly than ever before in history. We could have fewer home sales for years, not just months, and Redfin still wants to do well. I don't know what puts a company through hell more than going from $97 per share to $8 per share." In
