After 16 years as the Director of Operations at MCI/Verizon, Keith Dunham left the telecommunications industry to focus on real estate technology. He successfully started the Austin branch of Zip Realty before joining HomeCity as CEO in 2011. In April 2018, Keith sold HomeCity to Better Homes and Gardens.

Additionally, with the assistance of Ben Rubenstein, David Rubin, and Michael Lam, the in-house lead generation process Keith created at Homecity became the powerhouse Opcity, selling to Realtor.com for 210 million.

In 2020, bringing together experience in brokerage, transactions and tech, Keith founded Empower Transactions to minimize the pain points of transaction coordination for agents, teams, and brokerages across the country. He is passionate about building strategic partnerships and systems, backed by the best Transaction Coordinators in the business.
