Redfin names Alessio Sanfilippo CEO effective immediately

The appointment comes after Rocket Companies acquired Redfin in an all-stock deal valued at $1.75 billion in equity.

Reported · Written up by our desk · Industry

HousingWire reports that Rocket Companies has appointed Alessio Sanfilippo as CEO of Redfin, effective immediately.

Sanfilippo previously worked at Meta and Intuit, with more than 20 years of product, data and AI experience, including leadership roles at Meta’s Reality Labs, WhatsApp and Intuit.

Following Redfin’s acquisition by Rocket Companies, longtime CEO Glenn Kelman stepped down in January 2026, after having led the tech-enabled brokerage.

HousingWire adds that the Rocket-Redfin all-stock deal was valued at $1.75 billion in equity, combining a national brokerage and a traffic-heavy search site with Rocket’s mortgage origination, closing and servicing capabilities.
