UNLISTED, operator of UnlistedHomes.com, a Dayton-based innovator revolutionizing the residential real estate market, is proud to be recognized as one of Dayton Business Journal's Startups to Watch for 2025. This annual list celebrates local startups making significant strides in growth, innovation, and industry impact.
UNLISTED develops cutting-edge, cloud-based software that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to uncover off-market real estate opportunities. The platform connects buyers, sellers, real estate agents, and other industry stakeholders interested in selling privately, significantly expanding market possibilities.
“Currently, less than 5% of homes are listed for sale in any given year,” said Katie Hill, founder and CEO of UNLISTED. “However, more than 60% of homeowners are open to the possibility of selling but just aren’t up for dealing with the work and stress that comes with publicly listing their home. We’re a soft landing spot—a place where homeowners can gently attract interest from buyers without the hassle.”
UNLISTED’s recognition as one of Dayton's top 10 startups to keep an eye on in 2025 follows a milestone year in 2024, during which the company secured $2.25 million in seed funding from HearstLab, a prestigious early-stage fund focused on women-led startups. The company is positioned for rapid expansion and technological innovation.
UNLISTED recently expanded its team from two to 12 full- and part-time employees and established a national presence, partnering with luxury real estate agents from the Bay Area to Boston. The company's growth trajectory underscores its commitment to transforming the residential real estate landscape.
“We are honored to be named a 'Startup to Watch',” said Hill. “This recognition validates the hard work of our team and the growing demand for innovative solutions in real estate. We look forward to continuing our growth and contributing to the vibrant entrepreneurial community in Dayton and beyond.”
