On Wednesday, Sept. 15, CoreLogic announced it had acquired Next Gear Solutions which could have far-reaching impacts on the restoration industry when it comes to estimating, data, and more.
As soon as the acquisition was announced, questions swirled around what this means for Next Gear customers, Next Gear staff, contractor data, estimating, and marketplace competition.
In his very first public conversation since the acquisition was announced, Next Gear Solutions Founder and CEO Garret Gray talks about what prompted the sale, his vision for the future of the restoration industry, and answers many questions on contractors’ minds.
