Curbio is a real estate technology company that provides turnkey, pay-at-closing home improvement services specifically for pre-listing repairs and updates to get homes market-ready for sale.[1][3] It serves real estate agents and homeowners by solving pain points in traditional home renovations—such as delays, poor communication, fluctuating costs, and project management burdens—through its proprietary app that delivers instant, market-specific pricing, real-time tracking, and full-service execution from minor fixes to full remodels, with no upfront payments required until closing.[2][3][4] Key metrics include completing projects 60% faster than typical contractors, boosting homeowner profits by an average of $50,000, delivering 113% average ROI on improvements, and reducing days-on-market by 58%.[1]
Headquartered in Potomac, MD, Curbio has raised $93 million since 2016 and earned recognition like HousingWire's Tech100 list for three consecutive years through 2024, highlighting its innovation in the housing economy.[3][5]
Founded in 2016, Curbio emerged to address inefficiencies in pre-listing home improvements during real estate transactions, where sellers often face time crunches, unreliable contractors, and cash flow issues before closing.[1][5] While specific founder details are not detailed in available sources, the company quickly gained traction by pioneering a tech-enabled, pay-at-closing model that eliminates upfront costs and streamlines the fragmented contractor process.[3][4] Early pivotal moments include developing its core app for instant estimates and project oversight, which has handled thousands of projects on-time and on-budget, building trust with agents and leading to partnerships like exclusive benefits for National Association of REALTORS® members.[4][6] By 2022, it had secured $93 million in funding, fueling national expansion.[5]
Curbio rides the proptech wave transforming real estate transactions by digitizing pre-listing prep, a critical bottleneck in a market where homes must sell fast amid high interest rates and inventory shortages.[1][3] Its timing aligns with rising demand for transparency and efficiency in home services, as agents juggle more listings and buyers expect move-in-ready properties; the app modernizes outdated contractor workflows, much like Uber did for ridesharing.[2] Market forces like NAR partnerships and HousingWire accolades amplify its reach, influencing the ecosystem by setting standards for tech-integrated renovations that boost transaction velocity and agent productivity.[3][6]
Curbio is poised for continued dominance in proptech home services, expanding its app's AI-driven pricing and automation to capture more of the $500B+ U.S. home improvement market amid persistent housing shortages.[1][3] Trends like remote project management and buyer personalization will shape its path, potentially through integrations with MLS platforms or virtual staging tools. Its influence may evolve by inspiring competitors to adopt pay-at-closing tech, further accelerating real estate's digital shift—reinforcing its role as the go-to for transaction-ready homes.[2][5]
Curbio has raised $65.0M across 1 funding round. Most recently, it raised $65.0M Series B in January 2022.
