2020 HW Woman of Influence: Vanessa Famulener

HomeLight Cash Close, General Manager

Vanessa Famulener

Since joining HomeLight to lead business operations two years ago, Vanessa Famulener has proven herself flexible, dynamic and willing to tackle whatever the company needs as it scales.

As general manager, Famulener started the year developing a strategy for HomeLight to build a home-financing division, researching various opportunities, and finally identifying Eave, an innovative digital mortgage startup, as an acquisition target. After successfully overseeing the merger, Famulener was instrumental in the integration and evolution of the two companies into the powerful lending platform, HomeLight Home Loans. Under Famulener’s leadership, HomeLight took home purchasing to a whole new level in January with the launch of the HomeLight Cash Close program. Famulener developed two game-changing products, HomeLight Trade-In and Cash Offer, with the goal of transforming the transaction experience, and introducing speed and certainty into an otherwise frustrating process. As she continues to pioneer revolutionary home purchase products and tools, Famulener is committed to making every real estate transaction simple, certain and less costly. Known to her peers as both a creative and a problem solver, Famulener’s leadership style is one that consistently encourages her team to take risks and get outside their comfort zone.
