How often do you shoot out of bed to jot down work ideas?

Sounds good, doesn't it? To fully engage your mind rather than just show up for work? This is the place for professionals who sincerely love what they do. We're an enthusiastic group with unmitigated passion for the mission we're on. And that's why we're the nation's leading real estate software development company.

Two cutting-edge locations and multiple satellite offices

Our Oklahoma City headquarters and a development center in Salt Lake City, connected via live PolyCom feed 24x7x365. We also have employees in Atlanta, San Francisco and Washington DC, just to name a few.

Unrivaled benefits

We're looking for the best and the brightest and we put our money where our mouth is. Our benefits speak for themselves.

  • A 401(k) plan with a variety of investment options and immediate 100% vesting
  • We pay 100% for single medical coverage through Aetna with optional family coverage that's shockingly affordable
  • Dental insurance through Delta Dental of Oklahoma, and we pay 100%

  • The best people -- you won't find better

We promote from within

There's always room for growth.  If you show us you have a talent for something and the desire to develop it and apply it to growing the company, we'll give you a new title and let you do it. Support techs have become lead developers.  Junior salespeople have become Officers.  IT guys have become EVPs.  Show us you're an asset and we won't let that go to waste.

We'll even buy you lunch every day

Most companies have vending machines. Not here. Our café has drinks, gourmet coffees, good lunches and snacks every day and it's always FREE. Maybe you're thinking of a junior high cafeteria? No. We're talking turkey croissants, herbal teas, Milky Way Choccochinos, Oreo cookies, and much more.

 

26 years old, never bought or sold and still growing

We develop, sell and support the best software for real estate pros. Over 200,000 agents, lenders, mortgage pros, inspectors and appraisers have relied on our products to power nearly 50% of all residential transactions. Led by the same owner that started the company in '85, we’re here to stay.
