What started out as a few hungry entrepreneurs driven to organize an erratic industry has transformed into the largest single-family investment marketplace in the nation.
On the heels of the 2008 foreclosure crisis, we saw an opportunity to serve local flippers and landlords in need of a constant source of investment properties.
With a plan firmly rooted in technology, we utilized data and our local field expertise to create unique algorithms that would take an outdated, local, one-to-one model for acquiring houses to a national scale.
“New Western emerged from the shifts of 2008. We are a product of circumstance, not design. We had to forge our mettle from day one and carry it still.”
Kurt Carlton
Co-Founder & President of New Western
We opened our first offices and business took off. From launching Dallas and Fort Worth to Houston and San Antonio–we laid down roots. And then set our sights on expansion outside the Lone Star state, taking on new markets in Atlanta and Philadelphia and moving on to California and Florida.
As we started getting noticed and also rewarded as the fastest-growing business in Dallas, we launched into hypergrowth, expanding into more markets. Since inception, demand for our service has continued to rise and we have seen an average growth rate of 40 percent year-over-year.
For investors looking to accelerate and grow their businesses, we now provide a fully integrated platform with access to a variety of diverse loan options structured to satisfy multiple strategies from Sherman Bridge, our lending marketplace, and through our investor-focused title company–Spartan Title.
New Western continues to win awards for being a great place to work, too. Chosen as Fortune’s Best Places to Work in Real Estate three years in a row and most importantly two years running on Glassdoor’s One of the Best Places to Work–an honor bestowed on us by the voluntary input from our employees.
