Second Century Ventures, the strategic investment arm of the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and operator of the REACH accelerator program, announced the six companies selected for the 2026 NAR REACH residential technology program on Thursday.
The REACH program focuses on identifying and accelerating technology companies serving the residential real estate industry.
Since launching more than a decade ago, REACH has expanded globally and across real estate sectors, supporting more than 375 technology companies worldwide since 2019.
“The future belongs to the agile creators. As the market evolves and technology advances, our promise remains unchanged: we will continue to champion cutting-edge solutions and cultivate an environment where entrepreneurs can turn friction into opportunity while keeping agents at the center of every transaction,” said Dave Garland, managing partner of Second Century Ventures. “We don’t just wait for the future of housing to arrive — we have been dedicating ourselves to building it for years.”
The six companies selected for the 2026 program focus on solving operational and technology challenges across residential real estate, including compliance, fragmented data, affordability, workflow automation and transparency.
The selected companies include:
- Ai.realestate (AiRE), a platform that combines internal business data with property, mortgage and client information to create a centralized intelligence database for sales teams.
- Association Online (AO), which provides HOA data and transaction transparency tools designed to reduce delays and support agents navigating association-related transactions.
- BrokerBot, an AI platform built to support brokerages with administrative tasks, training, compliance and agent guidance.
- LotRoll, a technology platform focused on bringing infrastructure and data solutions to the manufactured housing sector.
- MaxHome.ai, a transaction intelligence platform aimed at streamlining compliance and operational workflows for brokerages and agents.
- StackWrap, a centralized dashboard platform that integrates third-party systems and tracks agent engagement and technology adoption.
“The companies selected for this year’s program offer innovation that delivers the dynamic tools the industry needs to enter a new era of real estate and evolve the consumer experience,” said Ashley Stinton, managing partner of NAR REACH. “Whether focused on streamlining complex workflows and notoriously fragmented datasets, building and improving infrastructure, or creating transparency and access, each of these six solutions harness the power of modern technology to elevate the level of service and connection between clients and the real estate professionals who serve them.
“These tools will not only optimize the balance sheet; they will create a runway for brokers and agents to grow their businesses, develop new ways to serve clients, and expand their roles as trusted advisors before, during and after the transaction.”
The REACH program provides participating companies with mentorship, networking opportunities, education and exposure to the broader real estate industry.
