Redwood Celebrates Fourth Straight Year on Fortune Best Workplaces in Real Estate List

For the fourth year in a row, Redwood has earned a place on the Fortune Best Workplaces in Real Estate list, reinforcing its reputation as one of the industry’s most employee-focused organizations. 

The annual ranking, developed by Fortune in partnership with Great Place To Work®, is based entirely on confidential employee surveys. Great Place To Work analyzes responses to its Trust Index™ survey—a comprehensive 60-statement questionnaire and open-ended feedback—to evaluate factors such as leadership credibility, fairness, inclusivity, pride in work and overall connection among colleagues. 

In the latest survey, 90 percent of Redwood employees reported that Redwood is a great place to work—far exceeding the 57 percent average reported at a typical U.S. company. Employees frequently pointed to: 

  • A welcoming culture: 97 percent said they felt genuinely welcomed when they joined. 
  • Company pride: 94 percent are proud to tell others they work at Redwood. 
  • Customer confidence: 94 percent of employees believe customers would describe Redwood’s service as “excellent.” 

“Our success is built on the belief that a strong, supportive culture makes all the difference,” said Steve Kimmelman, founder and CEO of Redwood. “Hearing directly from our Redwood Ambassadors that our company continues to be a place where they feel valued and inspired is incredibly meaningful. Their dedication and passion drive everything we achieve.” 

Great Place To Work gathered feedback from 1.3 million U.S. employees across industries, including nearly 29,000 from real estate companies eligible for this year’s list. Companies that excel across every demographic group and role earn the highest rankings, highlighting workplaces where a positive culture is broadly shared.
