BuildZoom

We are a construction marketplace that helps people build and remodel. We are generally focused on large projects; those that require a building permit. BuildZoom is a managed marketplace in that we have construction engineers with home building/commercial construction experience on staff who help property owners with finding contractors, identifying the scope of the project, material selection, bid negotiation, bid leveling (making sure each bid says the same thing and includes the entire scope of the project). Our data business (we collect the complete building permit history of the largest 1500 municipalities in the country) helps us identify the best (and worst) general contractors and builders. We've grown 75-100% each of the last three years.
