Flyhomes hires three senior executives to scale its buy-before-you-sell partnerships

# What happened

# Who the hires are and what they'll do

• Tyler Moynihan — vice president of business development. Moynihan spent more than 11 years leading business development at Zillow. At Flyhomes he will focus on strategic partnerships to expand adoption of the buy-before-you-sell offering among lenders and real estate companies. Moynihan said Flyhomes gives partners a way to help customers move while keeping those existing relationships central to the transaction.

• Nihit Nirmal — vice president of product. Nirmal will oversee product development with an explicit focus on making the platform easier for partners to use when evaluating homeowner options and advancing transactions.

• Wendy Tieu — director of partner enablement. Tieu returns to Flyhomes to lead partner education, resources and ongoing support, helping lenders and agents identify cases where the platform can keep transactions moving or revive postponed moves.

# Why Flyhomes is leaning into partners now

The company recently established a financing framework with Figure designed to support up to $2.4 billion in annual buy-before-you-sell volume as adoption grows. Alongside that financing capacity, Flyhomes relaunched its website and introduced a Partner Portal to make its tools available through wholesale and partner channels.

# What partners get

• Access to the buy-before-you-sell workflow and tools via a Partner Portal.

• A product roadmap intended to reduce friction for partners when assessing homeowners' options, led by Nirmal.

# Practical implications for lenders, loan officers and agents Lenders and real estate companies already have relationships with homeowners who want to move but feel stuck because of financing or timing constraints. Flyhomes is positioning its platform as a plug-in solution partners can offer to those customers instead of losing business or leaving customers immobilized. The combination of partner-focused hires, a Partner Portal and a financing framework aims to make buy-before-you-sell transactions operationally accessible through partner channels.

# Bottom line Flyhomes is staffing to accelerate partner adoption of its buy-before-you-sell product. Expect activity in three areas: business development outreach to lenders and brokerages, product work to simplify partner workflows, and partner enablement to train and support those partners as they begin to use the platform. The Figure financing framework provides a capacity signal, though adoption will determine actual volumes.
