Last week, we explored RealPurpose, the first of our company values. Today, we’re taking a closer look at one of the clearest expressions of that value: #MissionZero, our annual collaboration with Veterans United Home Loans. Each Veterans Day, #MissionZero raises awareness of the zero-down VA home loan benefit — a powerful path to homeownership that too few eligible Veterans know they qualify for. Through this work, we spotlight real stories of Veterans finding a place to call home and help expand understanding of a benefit that can change lives. Across Realtor.com, our teams pour passion and purpose into this effort. For many, the mission is personal and the campaign serves as a reminder of why RealPurpose matters: showing up every day to help more Americans achieve their dream of homeownership.

Hear what RealPurpose and #MissionZero mean to Rachel Shields, VP of Account Management.
