A new local start-up, Buyer Curious, seeks to help home buyers leverage more power in real-estate transactions. Instead of negotiating via a third party, Buyer Curious lets prospective home buyers negotiate with and speak directly to the home owner. 

At Good Work Group, we believe the companies and organizations that offer users more power and transparency will become the true success stories as people become increasingly savvy and desire more control over their interactions and purchasing decisions. 

Good Ideas start with building trust, transparency, community, and consumer power. 

We’re excited to see how this idea unfolds locally and across the country. 

*Note: We’ve never liked the word “consumer.” It sounds like some sort of alien being whose only function is digestion of toxic waste from dead lakes. However, in this case we just used it to make a point about “authority.” Don’t be mad at us. We’re really sorry to bring up that image of the weird crusty alien.
