Longtime Real Estate Executive To Bring First-Ever Property Tech Franchise To The Carolinas And Ohio

"There is an insatiable need in the real estate industry for a way to stay connected to customers once they buy or sell a home - YourHomeHub is an ingenious new technology solution that does just that,” said Collins. "Consumers are going to love the fact that it gives them a free platform to house all the important documents they need as homeowners while connecting them with professionals when they need services. And realtors find it invaluable because it keeps them top of mind with their clients. It gives them a reason to reach out and maintain a relationship.”

YourHomeHub, powered by MooveGuru, is the first consumer portal that is "everything home," meaning it allows homeowners to manage both the financial details and physical elements of their home. The consumer can monitor extensive information about their home, and local market conditions, store important documents, generate accurate estimates for home repairs and find a local contractor for over 1,000 different home service categories.

Collins found out about YourHomeHub through a serendipitous exchange on LinkedIn with Scott Oakley, who is the founder and CEO of MooveGuru, the real estate technology brand behind YourHomeHub that already services millions of consumers and partners with hundreds of thousands of real estate agents. After they reconnected, the two went out for lunch and soon afterwards Collins was sold on the concept. Alongside his partners, he decided to invest in territories to develop the franchise across three states, covering the majority of North and South Carolina, along with Ohio.

He strategically chose these states as a real estate professional based in the suburbs of Charlotte, N.C.

Collins is an active member of several industry associations, including the North Carolina Real Estate Investors Association (NCREIA) and the Canopy Board of Real Estate - also located in North Carolina.
