With more than 320,000 professional members, ActiveRain (Seattle, WA) is the largest and most active professional social network and marketing platform in the real estate industry. ActiveRain is not trying to change the real estate business model, unlike other technology companies. Rather, ActiveRain augments the existing one. Over the years, we've worked closely with real estate professionals and companies, both large and small, providing the technology and marketing to support their core business: helping consumers buy and sell homes.

Our primary goal is to empower the real estate professional, and as an extension, educate and empower the consumer.

ActiveRain launched in 2006. In 2011, ActiveRain was acquired by Market Leader, one of the largest providers of software and marketing services to the real estate industry. As part of Market Leader, ActiveRain works closely with the Internet Marketing Specialist Designation (IMSD) to provide advanced training to the real estate community.
