Dallas, Texas — Today, HousingWire announced the 2025 Tech Trendsetters, honoring 75 technology leaders who are driving innovation and impact across the housing industry. Now in its seventh year, the Tech Trendsetters award celebrates the individuals behind the technology — the visionaries, engineers, product leaders, and data strategists who are transforming how housing professionals work, connect, and serve their customers.
This year’s honorees represent every corner of housing — from mortgage lending and servicing to real estate, housing technology and capital markets — and are setting new standards for efficiency, automation, and customer experience. These innovators are advancing their companies’ technology roadmaps and redefining how technology empowers lenders, agents, investors, and homeowners.
“We’re thrilled to recognize the 2025 Tech Trendsetters. These leaders are the builders and innovators whose products and platforms are shaping the future of housing,” said Sarah Wheeler, Editor in Chief at HousingWire. “These leaders aren’t just keeping up with technology, they’re setting the pace.
