Note 1: Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business - Redfin Corporation ("Redfin" or the "Company") was incorporated in October 2002 and is headquartered in Seattle, Washington. The Company operates an online real estate marketplace and provides real estate services, including assisting individuals in the purchase or sale of their residential property. The Company also provides title and settlement services, originates and sells mortgages, and buys and sells residential properties via wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company has operations located in multiple states nationwide.

Initial Public Offering - On August 2, 2017, the Company completed an initial public offering (the "IPO") whereby  10,615,650  shares of common stock were sold at a price of  $15.00  per share, which included  1,384,650  shares pursuant to the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares. The Company received net proceeds of  $144,380  after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses directly attributable to the IPO. Upon the closing of the IPO, all shares of the outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock automatically converted into  55,422,002  shares of common stock on a  one -for-one basis.

Initial Public Offering Costs - Costs, including legal, accounting and other fees and costs relating to the IPO were accounted for as a reduction in additional paid-in capital. Aggregate offering expenses totaled  $3,708 .

Basis of Presentation - The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company had no components of other comprehensive income (loss) during any of the periods presented, as such, a consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss) is not presented. All amounts are presented in thousands, except share and per share data.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of June 30, 2018, the Company's results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and the Company's cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018 or for any interim period or for any other future year.

Principles of Consolidation -The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of Redfin and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Certain Significant Risks and Business Uncertainties - The Company is subject to the risks and challenges associated with companies at a similar stage of development. These include dependence on key individuals, successful development and marketing of its offerings, and competition with larger companies with greater financial, technical, and marketing resources. Further, to achieve substantially higher revenue in order to become profitable, the Company may require additional funds that may not be available or may not be on terms that are acceptable to the Company.

The Company operates in the online real estate marketplace and, accordingly, can be affected by a variety of factors. For example, management of the Company believes that any of the following factors could have a significant negative effect on the Company's future financial position, results of operations, and cash flows: unanticipated fluctuations in operating results due to seasonality and cyclicality in the real estate industry, changes in home sale prices and transaction volumes, the Company's ability to increase market share, competition and U.S. economic conditions. Since inception through June 30, 2018, the Company has incurred losses from operations and accumulated a deficit of  $162,235 , and has been dependent on equity financing to fund operations.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of consolidated financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and results of operations during the respective periods. The Company's more significant estimates include, but are not limited to, valuation of deferred income taxes, stock-based compensation, prior to its conversion on August 2, 2017 the fair value of common stock and redeemable convertible preferred stock, capitalization of website development costs, recoverability of intangible assets with finite lives, and the fair value of reporting units for purposes of evaluating goodwill for impairment. The amounts ultimately realized from the affected assets or ultimately recognized as liabilities will depend on, among other factors, general business conditions and could differ materially in the near term from the carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

Significant Accounting Policies -There have been no material changes to the Company's significant accounting policies and estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2018, from the significant accounting policies included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, except as noted below.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements - In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) . This guidance provides that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance also requires more detailed disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 and its related amendments (collectively known as ASC 606) effective on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective adoption methodology. Real estate services, properties and other revenue contain single performance obligations and the Company believes the timing of the satisfaction of the performance obligations, triggering the recognition of revenue, did not differ from the Company's timing for recognizing revenue prior to adopting this pronouncement. Further description of the impact of this pronouncement is included in Note 2: Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). This guidance impacts the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. The new standard made eight targeted changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted the new standard on a retrospective basis on January 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard had no impact on the Company's statement of cash flows.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash . This guidance impacts the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance requires a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The Company early adopted this guidance on October 1, 2017. Upon adoption, the following balances were reclassified: restricted cash to the reconciliation of change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, and other payables related to cash held in escrow on behalf of customers to financing activities. In the Company's capacity as fiduciary, the cash receipt is a function of providing the customer with a service (title). Therefore, the escrow funds payable are akin to a repayment of debt, a financing activity, whereby the Company in its role as fiduciary is temporarily holding cash in its restricted accounts on behalf of its customers and subsequently releases the cash to settle the customers' contractual obligation. This reclassification will maintain an accurate reflection of the Company's cash flows from operating activities. The reconciliation of amounts previously reported to the revised amounts upon adoption are as follows:

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) . This standard requires the recognition of a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases. This standard also requires more detailed disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and should be applied through a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, and early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2019. Although the Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the ASU on its consolidated financial statements, the Company currently believes the adoption of this guidance will be significant and the changes will be related to the recognition of new right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the Company's balance sheet for leased facilities.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842). This guidance provides an additional (and optional) transition method whereby the new lease standard is applied at the adoption date and recognized as an adjustment to retained earnings. In addition, this ASU provides a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease and instead account for the lease as a single component if both the timing and pattern of transfer of the nonlease component(s) are the same, and if the lease would be classified as an operating lease. These amendments have the same effective date as ASU 2016-02.

Note 2: Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenue Recognition - The Company applies the provisions of ASC 606-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), and all related appropriate guidance. The Company recognizes revenue under the core principle to depict the transfer of control to the Company's customers in an amount reflecting the consideration the Company expects to be entitled. In order to achieve that core principle, the Company applies the following five step approach: (1) identify the contract with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied.

    The Company's revenue primarily consists of commissions and fees charged on each real estate services transaction completed by the Company or its partner agents. The Company's key revenue components are brokerage revenue, partner revenue, property sales revenue, and other revenue. Revenue earned but not received is recorded as accrued revenue on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company does not separately disclose the amounts of product and service revenue.

Cost of Revenue -C ost of revenue consists primarily of personnel costs (including base pay, benefits, and stock-based compensation), transaction bonuses, home-touring and field expenses, listing expenses, property costs related to our properties segment, office and occupancy expenses, and depreciation and amortization related to fixed assets and acquired intangible assets. Property costs related to our properties segment include the property purchase price, capitalized improvements, selling expenses directly attributable to the transaction, and property maintenance expenses.

Nature and Disaggregation of Revenue

Real Estate Services

Brokerage Revenue- The Company recognizes commission-based brokerage revenue upon closing of a real estate services transaction, net of any commission refund or any closing-cost reduction. Brokerage revenue includes the Company's offer and listing services, representing homebuyers and home sellers. The transaction price is calculated by taking the agreed upon commission rate and applying that to the home's selling price. Brokerage revenue contains a single performance obligation that is satisfied upon the closing of a real estate services transaction, at which point the entire transaction price is earned. The Company is not entitled to any commission until the performance obligation is satisfied and is not owed any commission for unsuccessful transactions, even if services have been provided.

Partner Revenue- Partner revenue consists of fees earned by referring customers to partner agents. Partner revenue is earned and recognized when partner agents close referred transactions, net of any refunds provided to customers. The transaction price is a fixed percentage of the partner agent's commission. The partner agent directly remits the referral fee revenue to the Company. The Company is not entitled to any referral fee revenue until the related referred real estate services transaction closes, at which point the entire transaction price is earned and recognized as revenue.

Properties

Properties Revenue- Properties revenue consists of revenue earned when the Company sells homes that it previously bought directly from homeowners . Properties revenue is recorded at closing on a gross basis, representing the sales price of the home. The Company does not offer warranties for sold homes, and there are no continuing performance obligations following the transaction close date.

Other

Other Revenue- Significantly all fees and revenue from other services are recognized when the service is provided. Other services revenue includes fees earned from mortgage banking services, title settlement services, Walk Score data services, and advertising. Mortgage banking services are not subject to the guidance in ASC 606 as the scope of the standard does not apply to revenue on contracts accounted for under Financial Instruments (Topic 825) but are included in other services revenue to reconcile total revenue presented on the condensed consolidated statements of operations to the disaggregation of revenue table below.

Other Considerations - The Company's contracts with customers do not contain significant estimates or judgment. For both the real estate services and properties businesses, the Company's contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation that is recognized upon a transaction closing. The Company has utilized the practical expedient in ASC 606 and elected not to capitalize contract costs for contracts with customers with durations less than one year. The Company does not have significant remaining performance obligations or contract balances.

Accrued Revenue and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts after reviewing historical experience, age of accounts receivable balances and any other known conditions that may affect collectability. The majority of the Company's transactions are processed through escrow and collectability is not a significant risk. Properties had no balances in these accounts as of June 30, 2018. The following table presents the activity in the allowance for doubtful accounts for the period presented:

Note 3: Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company accounts for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or an exit price paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The current accounting guidance for fair value measurements defines a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures as follows:

Level I-Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level II-Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level I that are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level III-Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions. The Company's interest rate lock commitments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company estimates the fair value of an interest rate lock commitment based on quoted investor prices, net of origination costs and fees and the probability that the mortgage loan will be purchased within the terms of the interest rate lock commitment.

The categorization of a financial instrument within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's financial instruments consist of Level I, Level II and Level III assets and (liabilities). Level I assets include highly liquid money market funds, Level II assets and (liabilities) include forward sales commitments, and Level III assets and (liabilities) include interest rate lock commitments. As of June 30, 2018, forward sales commitments and interest rate lock commitments were broken out between Other asset and Other payables, as well as interest rate lock commitments were reclassified to Level III.

A summary of assets and (liabilities) at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, related to the Company's financial instruments, measured at fair value on a recurring basis, is set forth below:

The changes in the Level 3 financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis were immaterial during the periods presented.

Note 4: Property and Equipment

A summary of property and equipment at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is as follows:

Depreciation and amortization expense for property and equipment amounted to $1,777 and $1,512 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $3,658 and $3,295 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Note 5: Acquired Intangible Assets

The following table presents details of the Company's intangible assets subject to amortization as of the dates presented:

Acquired intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life, which approximates the expected use of these assets. Amortization expense amounted to $122 and $244 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Amortization expense of $2,440 will be recognized over the next five years, or $488 per year.

Note 6: Segment Reporting

In its operation of the business, the Company's management, including its chief operating decision maker, who is also the Chief Executive Officer, evaluates the performance of the Company's operating segments based on revenue and gross profit. The Company does not analyze discrete segment balance sheet information related to long-term assets, all of which are located in the United States. All other financial information is presented on a consolidated basis. The Company has  five  operating segments and  two  reportable segments, real estate services and properties. The Company has elected to present properties as a segment, given its decision to proceed with buying homes directly from homeowners and reselling them to homebuyers as an ongoing customer offering.

The Company's reportable segments and other segments are described below:

Real estate services

Real estate services revenue is derived from commissions and fees charged on real estate services transactions closed by the Company or its partner agents.

Properties

Properties is a new reportable segment as of June 30, 2018. Prior to June 30, 2018, the properties segment results were included as part of the Company's other segment. Properties revenue is earned when when the Company sells homes that it previously bought directly from homeowners.

Other

Other revenue consists of fees earned for title and settlement services, mortgage banking services, Walk Score licensing and advertising fees, and other services. Included in other are all operating segments and revenue not otherwise included in reportable operating segments.

Information on each of the reportable and other segments and reconciliation to consolidated net income (loss) is as follows:

Note 7: Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity

Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock -The Company's redeemable convertible preferred stock automatically converted into common stock at a rate of one -for-one on the closing of the Company's IPO on August 2, 2017. As such, no shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock were authorized, issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2018.

Please see Note 6 to the Company's consolidated financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 for a description of the terms of the redeemable convertible preferred stock.

Accretion Expense -Accretion represents the increase in the redemption value of the Company's redeemable convertible preferred stock. The recognized accretion expense related to the increase in the redemption value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock was reclassed upon the successful completion of the IPO, which occurred during 2017.

The following table presents the accretion expense of the redeemable convertible preferred stock to its redemption value recorded within the consolidated statements of changes in redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders' equity during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017:

Common Stock -At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the Company was authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share.

The Company has reserved shares of common stock, on an as-converted basis, for future issuance as follows:

Preferred Stock - As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had authorized 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 , of which no shares were outstanding.

Note 8: Stock-based Compensation

2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan -The Company's 2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("2017 ESPP") became effective on July 27, 2017 and enables eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at a discount. Purchases are accomplished through participation in discrete offering periods. The Company initially reserved  1,600,000  shares of common stock for issuance under the 2017 ESPP. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2017 ESPP will increase automatically on January 1 of each calendar year beginning after the first offering date and continuing through January 1, 2028 by the number of shares equal to the lesser of  1%  of the total outstanding shares of the Company's common stock as of the immediately preceding December 31 or an amount determined by the board of directors. On February 22, 2018, the board of directors determined to increase to the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2017 ESPP by 814,688 shares. On each purchase date, participating employees purchase the Company's common stock at a price per share equal to  85%  of the lesser of (1) the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the first trading day of the offering period, and (2) the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the purchase date. Offering periods last 6 months each, and begin every January 1 and July 1.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, 187,076 shares of common stock were purchased under the 2017 ESPP. The fair value of common shares to be issued under the 2017 ESPP were calculated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

2017 Equity Incentive Plan - The Company's 2017 Equity Incentive Plan ("2017 EIP") became effective on July 26, 2017, and provides for the issuance of incentive and nonqualified common stock options and restricted stock units to employees, directors, officers, and consultants of the Company. The Company initially reserved 7,898,159 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2017 EIP. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2017 EIP will increase automatically on January 1 of each calendar year beginning on January 1, 2018 and continuing through January 1, 2028, by the number of shares equal to the lesser of  5%  of the total outstanding shares of the Company's common stock as of the immediately preceding December 31 or an amount determined by the board of directors. On December 22, 2017, the board of directors determined that there would be no increase to the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2017 EIP on January 1, 2018. The term of each restricted stock unit under the plan shall be no more than  10  years and generally vest over a  four -year period. The term of each option grant shall be no more than  10  years and generally vest over a four -year period.

Amended and Restated 2004 Equity Incentive Plan -The Company granted options under its Amended and Restated 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended ("2004 Plan"), until July 26, 2017, when the plan was terminated in connection with the Company's IPO. Accordingly, no shares are available for future issuance under this plan. The 2004 Plan continues to govern outstanding equity awards granted thereunder.

The following table presents information regarding options granted, exercised, forfeited, or canceled for the periods presented:

The grant date fair value of options to purchase common stock is recorded as stock-based compensation over the vesting period. As of June 30, 2018, there was $12,597 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to options to purchase common stock, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.89 years .

Restricted Stock Units- The following table summarizes activity for restricted stock units for the six months ended June 30, 2018 :

The grant date fair value of restricted stock units is recorded as stock-based compensation over the vesting period. As of June 30, 2018, there was $41,026 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock units, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.45 years .

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company granted  140,601 restricted stock units subject to performance conditions ("2018 Performance RSUs") at 100% of the target level. Depending on the Company's achievement of the performance conditions, the actual amount of shares of common stock issuable upon vesting of the 2018 Performance RSUs will range from 0% to 200% of the target amount of restricted stock units. For each recipient of the 2018 Performance RSUs, the award will vest, subject to the recipient continuing to provide service to the Company, upon the Company's board of directors, or its compensation committee, certifying that the Company achieved certain financial targets for the three -year

period from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020. Share-based compensation expense for 2018 Performance RSUs will be recognized when it is probable that the performance conditions will be achieved. As of June 30, 2018, $93 of share-based compensation expense was recognized for the 2018 Performance RSUs.

Note 9: Net Income (loss) per Share Attributable to Common Stock

Net income (loss) per share attributable to common stock is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common stock by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. The Company has outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, employee stock purchase plan shares, and previously had redeemable convertible preferred stock, which are included in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) attributable to common stock per share whenever doing so would be dilutive.

The Company calculates basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stock in conformity with the two-class method required for companies with participating securities. The Company considers all series of redeemable convertible preferred stock to be participating securities. Under the two-class method, net income (loss) attributable to common stock is not allocated to the redeemable convertible preferred stock as the holders of redeemable convertible preferred stock do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses. Upon the conversion of the redeemable convertible preferred stock to common stock on the date of the IPO, or August 2, 2017, the Company only had  one  class of participating security, common stock. Diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stock is computed by giving effect to all potential dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period.

The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stock during the periods presented:

The following outstanding shares of common stock equivalents as of June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017 were excluded from the computation of the diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stock for the periods presented because their effect would have been anti-dilutive:

Note 10: Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"). The Tax Act incorporates broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code. The main provision of the Tax Act that is applicable to the Company is the reduction of a maximum federal tax rate of 35% to a flat tax rate of 21%, effective January 1, 2018. The Company incorporated the change in federal tax rates in its annual tax provision for the period ended December 31, 2017. The net impact to the Company's tax expense was $0 . As of December 31, 2017, the Company completed and recorded the adjustments necessary under Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 related to the Tax Act.

The Company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was 0% as a result of the Company recording a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets.

In determining the realizability of the net U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets, the Company considers numerous factors including historical profitability, estimated future taxable income, prudent and feasible tax planning strategies and the industry in which it operates. Management reassesses the realization of the deferred tax assets each reporting period, which resulted in a valuation allowance against the full amount of the Company's U.S. deferred tax assets for the three and six month ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. To the extent that the financial results of the U.S. operations improve in the future and the deferred tax assets become realizable, the Company will reduce the valuation allowance through earnings.

Under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, substantial changes in the Company's ownership may limit the amount of net operating loss carryforwards that could be utilized annually in the future to offset taxable income. Any such annual limitation may significantly reduce the utilization of the net operating losses before they expire. A Section 382 limitation study performed as of March 31, 2017 determined there was an ownership change in 2006 and $1,538 of the 2006 net operating loss is unavailable.

Net operating loss carryforwards are available to offset federal taxable income and begin to expire in 2025. As of December 31, 2017 the Company has accumulated approximately $87,071 of federal tax losses, and approximately $4,231 (tax effected) of state losses.

The Company's material income tax jurisdiction is the United States (federal). As a result of net operating loss carryforwards, the Company is subject to audit for tax years 2005 and forward for federal purposes. There are tax years which remain subject to examination in various other jurisdictions that are not material to the Company's financial statements.

Note 11: Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings - From time to time the Company is involved in litigation, claims and other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. This litigation and other proceedings may include, but are not limited to, actions relating to employment law, independent contractor misclassification, intellectual property, commercial or contractual claims, brokerage or real estate disputes, claims related to the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act of 1974, the Fair Housing Act of 1968, or other consumer protection statutes, ordinary-course brokerage disputes like the failure to disclose property defects, commission disputes, and vicarious liability based upon conduct of individuals or entities outside of the Company's control, including partner agents and third-party contractor agents. Litigation and other disputes are inherently unpredictable and subject to substantial uncertainties and unfavorable resolutions could occur. Often these cases raise complex factual and legal issues, which are subject to risks and uncertainties and could require significant management time and resources.

Facility Leases and Other Commitments -The Company leases its office space under noncancelable operating leases with terms ranging from one to 11 years. Generally, the leases require a fixed minimum rent with contractual minimum rent increases over the lease term, and certain leases include escalation provisions. Rent expense totaled $1,974 and $1,679 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $3,844 and $4,325 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Other commitments primarily relate to network infrastructure for the Company's data operations. Also included are homes that the Company is under contract to purchase through Redfin Now but that have not closed. Future minimum payments due under these agreements as of June 30, 2018 are as follows:

Mortgage Warehouse and Master Repurchase Agreements - In December 2016, Redfin Mortgage entered into a Mortgage Warehouse Agreement with Texas Capital Bank, National Association ("Texas Capital"), and in June 2017, Redfin Mortgage entered into a Master Repurchase Agreement with Western Alliance Bank. Pursuant to each of the Mortgage Warehouse Agreement and Master Repurchase Agreement, Texas Capital and Western Alliance Bank, respectively, agree to fund loans originated by Redfin

Mortgage, in its discretion, up to  $10,000  and to take a security interest in such loans. The per annum interest rate payable to Texas Capital is a fixed rate equal to the rate of interest accruing on the outstanding principal balance of the loan, minus  1.5% , or  3.0% , whichever is higher. The per annum interest rate payable to Western Alliance Bank is a fixed rate equal to the LIBOR rate plus  3.00% , or  3.75% , whichever is higher. For each loan in which Texas Capital elects to purchase a participation interest, it will acquire an undivided  97%  participation interest, by paying as the purchase price an amount equal to the participation interest multiplied by the principal balance of the loan. For each loan in which Western Alliance Bank elects to purchase, it will acquire an undivided  98%  participation interest, by paying as the purchase price an amount equal to the participation interest multiplied by the principal balance of the loan. If a loan is not sold to a correspondent lender, Texas Capital and Western Alliance Bank's participation interests in the loans are to be repurchased in whole or in part by Redfin Mortgage. The Company has guaranteed Redfin Mortgage's obligations under the Mortgage Warehouse and Master Repurchase Agreements.

The Mortgage Warehouse Agreement and Master Repurchase Agreements require each of the Company and Redfin Mortgage to maintain certain financial covenants and to provide periodic financial and compliance reports. Redfin Mortgage failed to satisfy certain financial covenants contained in the Mortgage Warehouse Agreement as of June 30, 2018, but Texas Capital has not enforced its remedies under the Mortgage Warehouse Agreement. As of June 30, 2018 there was  $2,225 outstanding under the Mortgage Warehouse Agreement and  $1,266  outstanding on the Master Repurchase Agreement. As of December 31, 2017 there was  $833  outstanding under the Mortgage Warehouse Agreement and $1,184  outstanding on the Master Repurchase Agreement. The Mortgage Warehouse Agreement expires on March 22, 2019 and the Master Repurchase Agreement expires on August 14, 2018.

The following table presents the detail of other payables as of the dates presented:

Note 14: Retirement Plan

The Company adopted a 401(k) profit sharing plan effective January 2005. The plan covers eligible employees as of their hire date. The 401(k) component of the plan allows employees to elect to defer from 1% to 100% of their eligible compensation up to the federal limit per year. Company-matching and profit-sharing contributions are discretionary and are determined annually by Company management and approved by the board of directors. No matching or profit-sharing contributions were declared for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Note 15: Subsequent Events

On July 23, 2018, the Company closed follow-on public offerings of 4,836,336 shares of common stock at a public offering price of  $23.50  per share, and  $143,750  aggregate principal amount of its 1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 ("Notes"). 

The aggregate gross proceeds from the common stock offering was $113,654 and from the Notes offering was $143,750 . The Company received $107,971 in proceeds from the common stock offering and $139,438 in proceeds from the Notes offering, in each case after deducting underwriting discounts but before deducting offering costs.

The Notes are senior, unsecured obligations of Redfin, and bear interest at a fixed rate of 1.75% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears. The Notes mature on July 15, 2023, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Prior to April 15, 2023, the Notes are convertible at the option of holders during certain periods, upon satisfaction of certain conditions. Thereafter, the Notes are convertible at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. Redfin may redeem for cash all or any portion of the notes, at its option, on or after July 20, 2021, upon satisfaction of certain conditions at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Redfin will settle conversions of the Notes by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of its common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at its election.

Holders of the Notes have the right to require Redfin to repurchase for cash all or a portion of their Notes at 100% of their principal amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, upon the occurrence of a

fundamental change (as defined in the indenture relating to the Notes). Redfin is required to increase the conversion rate for holders who convert their notes in connection with certain fundamental changes occurring prior to the maturity date or following Redfin's issuance of a notice of redemption.

The initial conversion rate of the Notes is 32.7332 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately  $30.55  per share of common stock. The initial conversion price represents a premium of approximately 30% to the  $23.50  per share public offering price for the common stock offering.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements, the accompanying notes, other financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements, such as our plans, estimates, and beliefs, that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements below. Factors that could cause or contribute to those differences in our actual results include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and those discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly in the section "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" above. The following discussion also contains information using industry publications that generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but such information may not be accurate or complete. While we are not aware of any misstatements regarding the information from these industry publications, we have not independently verified any of the data from third-party sources nor have we ascertained the underlying economic assumptions relied on therein.

In the below discussion, we use the term basis points to refer to units of one‑hundredth of one percent.

Prior to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we had one reportable segment ("real estate") that reflected revenue derived from commissions and fees charged on real estate services transactions closed by us or partner agents representing customers in buying and selling homes. Beginning with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we recognized a new reportable segment ("properties") that reflects revenue from when we sell homes that we previously bought directly from homeowners. Concurrent with our recognition of the new "properties" segment, we changed the name of our "real estate" segment to "real estate services." Prior to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we included the results from our "properties" segment as part of our "other" segment.

Overview

Redfin is the technology-powered residential real estate brokerage. We represent people buying and selling homes in over 80 markets throughout the United States. Our mission is to redefine real estate in the consumer's favor. In a commission-driven industry, we put the customer first. We do this by pairing our own agents with our own technology to create a service that is faster, better, and costs less.

In the first quarter of 2017, we began testing an experimental new service called Redfin Now, where we buy homes directly from homeowners and resell them to homebuyers. In July 2018, we expanded our Redfin Now service from an experiment to an ongoing customer offering. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, we limited ourselves to no more than $25.0 million in Redfin Now capital at any point in time, including inventory and properties that we are committed to purchase. In July 2018, we increased that limit to $35.0 million. Redfin Now is included in our properties segment.

On August 2, 2017, we completed our initial public offering, or IPO, in which we issued and sold 10,615,650 shares of our common stock (including 1,384,650 shares pursuant to the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares) at a public offering price of $15.00 per share. Upon the closing of the IPO, all of the outstanding shares of our redeemable convertible preferred stock automatically converted into 55,422,002 shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis. Subsequent to the closing of the IPO, there are no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

On July 23, 2018, we completed follow-on public offerings of (1) 4,836,336 shares of our common stock (including 630,826 shares pursuant to the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares) and (2) $143,750,000 aggregate principal amount of our 1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023, or convertible senior notes (including $18,750,000 principal amount of convertible senior notes sold pursuant to the underwriters' option to purchase additional notes). The public offering price for our common stock offering was $23.50 per share.
