Opendoor Releases the Key Agent™ App to Further Empower Real Estate Agents
The company's newest tool aims to be the go-to home selling resource that helps accelerate cash offers for agent partners
SAN FRANCISCO, July 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Opendoor, a leading platform for residential real estate, today launched the first iteration of its Opendoor Key Agent™ app — a new way for agents to get a cash offer for their clients in as little as two days. The app is intended to be the leading home selling resource for Opendoor's Key Agent™ program participants. At launch, the app will help agents present cash offers to clients with increased speed and precision by providing an intuitive, streamlined home assessment process.
The Key Agent app reinforces Opendoor's dedication to supporting its agent network and complements its recent Key Connections initiative, designed to broaden its reach and empower agents and sellers. Available at first to select Key Agent program members, the app simplifies the process of gathering home details room-by-room with inline questions about each area of the home. Users simply upload home photos and information to provide Opendoor with the most precise home details.
This enhanced data collection not only streamlines the offer process for agents, but also lays a critical foundation for the future of Opendoor's valuation technology. The high-quality, structured data captured through the app will be instrumental in fine-tuning the company's sophisticated home valuation models and repair-estimate algorithms. By leveraging this data, in conjunction with Opendoor's expert processes and internal data annotation teams, a powerful feedback cycle is created. This synergy between advanced AI and human expertise helps enhance the company's models, ultimately benefiting sellers with more competitive and precise offers.
Key features and benefits include:
- Driving efficiency through faster, simpler assessments: Agents can cut down on assessment time and effort by uploading photos and eliminating the need for a video recording. All questions are directly within the app allowing agents to complete the entire assessment flow in one place, eliminating the need for multiple tools or programs.
- Ensuring accuracy with room-by-room guidance: Agents receive clear, step-by-step instructions for each area of the home, ensuring they capture all necessary details and easily meet Opendoor's requirements for home assessments. Users can also group questions and photos by room so they can toggle between the two within the same room section.
- Offline capabilities: Agents can conduct assessments even without Wi-Fi, which is particularly useful in homes with poor reception. Users simply submit the completed assessment once they're back on a stable network.
"We built the Key Agent app to directly address common feedback from agents, and serve as a reliable, one-stop-shop for our partners," says Nick Boniakowski, Head of Agent Partnerships at Opendoor. "This is just the start of offerings for agents, with the goal to constantly iterate the app to best serve their home selling needs. We're committed to simplifying the real estate transaction for everyone involved, and creating a more seamless experience for sellers seeking a convenient and certain way to sell their home."
"The first iteration of our Key Agent app helps ensure agents can serve their clients with ease, speed, and precision," says Joe Callinan, Vice President of Product Management at Opendoor. "Now, agents can present cash offers to sellers with a streamlined, intuitive home assessment process. At Opendoor, we're focused on developing best-in-class products and technology that modernize real estate for the long-term."
At launch, Opendoor's Key Agent app is downloadable on the Apple App Store for iPhone users via invitation-only to Key Agent program participants, with plans to roll out to additional devices and agent users in the near future. Those interested in learning more can sign-up here.
