Creators James Bohan-Pitt and Clay Stapp, crafted the idea of HipPocket based on real-life experiences and a major time management & communication problem. Stapp, owner of boutique real estate group Clay Stapp+Co, has faced these communication problems day in and day out. As Clay describes, “To try to solve the communication problem, Realtors had resorted to hacking Facebook and LinkedIn. Private social groups had been created by title companies, lenders, and Realtors, and had become a place where Realtors can share information.” Well not anymore.
