About me

I’m Vikrant - a real estate agent, software engineer, and entrepreneur with a passion for innovation. With a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Computer Science and over a decade of experience, I specialize in leveraging data to solve real-world problems. I enjoy turning complex ideas into reality through robust systems and thoughtful designs, while leading teams of realtors, engineers, and marketing professionals.

​​

My entrepreneurial journey began when I co-founded Flat Fee Buyers to address a gap in real estate transaction services. The need for change in the industry became especially clear after the NAR vs. Sitzer case in California. Flat Fee Buyers empowers homebuyers with a straightforward, transparent, and cost-effective way to purchase homes. As CTO, I lead cross-functional teams and have developed expertise in market dynamics, customer acquisition, and scalable growth strategies.

 

I thrive on challenges, seeing them as chances to grow and innovate. Whether debugging software, brainstorming tech solutions, or scaling a business, I'm driven by a passion for impactful technology.

​

When I'm not coding or strategizing business growth, I enjoy skydiving, kitesurfing, motocross, or training my dog, Shiro.
