Quicken Loans is hitting the subsidiary trifecta now that In-House Realty has announced it is moving to the Compuware building, making it Quicken's third small-but-growing side business to join it in its downtown move this summer.
In-House Realty will bring 60 people with it. It started with three people when it was founded at the end of 2007 and has doubled its staff since 2008. It expects to hire another 10-15 within the next year.
"We're planning on continuing to grow," says Bruce Schwartz, CEO of
In-House Realty. "We have open positions right now."
In-House Realty is part of Quicken's plan to offer a full-line of services for home buyers. The company provides real-estate agent recommendations for people who come to
Quicken for pre-approval on home-buying loans. The company is a licensed real-estate broker in Michigan, Texas and Florida. It expects to be licensed in the top 20 markets within the next few years.
"It's a one-stop shop for the client, especially first-time homebuyers," Schwartz says. "This way there is a team of people working for them."
