PLACE, the real estate industry’s integrated technology, business services, and consumer platform for top-performing teams, announced the addition of three leaders to its executive ranks: Nikki Miller, formerly of Movoto; Jamie Jatzlau, most recently with Realtor.com and previously General Counsel for OpCity and Keller Williams Realty International; and Claire Dunham, most recently Chief Operations Officer for Homeward and previously with ShippingEasy and OutboundEngine.

“As PLACE expands our consumer services, leaders who understand the full homeownership journey are mission critical,” said PLACE Co-Founder Ben Kinney. “Nikki, Jamie, and Claire bring experience from some of the most influential companies in our industry, and their expertise will help us accelerate our impact.”

Nikki Miller joins PLACE as Vice President of Growth, bringing extensive experience in operational excellence, product-driven strategy, and scaling high-growth real estate platforms.

Jamie Jatzlau, now PLACE’s General Counsel, brings a powerful blend of corporate, technology, AI, compliance, and real estate expertise – strengthening PLACE’s legal and strategic foundation as the company continues to innovate and the path to a potential IPO.

Claire Dunham, newly appointed Senior Vice President of Title Operations and Strategy, adds significant strategic and operational depth in the proptech space, with a proven track record of scaling modern homeownership solutions and deep expertise across both title and mortgage processes.

“We have an aspirational mission for this industry, our bar is high, and we are committed to reaching it,” said PLACE Co-Founder Chris Suarez. “Adding Nikki, Jamie, and Claire to our leadership team underscores our commitment to building an unmatched organization capable of redefining what professionals and consumers should expect from a modern homeownership platform.”
