Insights

Financial Strategist

Sale generates immediate liquidity of $3.0 million plus potential $300,000 per year while preserving platform access.

The transaction converts an owned asset into cash and contingent revenue, improving near-term liquidity. Retaining five-year access to the LiveBy platform preserves operational capability while transferring ownership and likely removes maintenance or capital obligations tied to that asset.

Key dependencies include the actual receipt timing of the $3.0 million and realization of the $300,000 annual contingent consideration from data-sharing. Watch cash flow statements over the next few quarters to confirm receipt and any one-time gains or loss on sale; monitor any disclosed terms that affect recurring revenue recognition within five years.

Agent Experience & Partnership Lead

The deal extends Move Concierge services across Fathom's agent base while keeping LiveBy data access for five years, preserving agent-facing continuity.

By securing ongoing access to LiveBy and committing Move Concierge to serve Fathom's agents, the company reduces disruption risk for its reported ~15,000 agents and maintains client-facing workflows. This structure separates ownership from service delivery, which can streamline vendor management while preserving tool availability.

Risks hinge on the operational integration and whether Move Concierge delivers equivalent or better service levels; track agent adoption, retention metrics, and any reported changes in customer satisfaction over the next 6–12 months to verify the stated benefits.

Fathom to Receive $3.0 Million Cash

CARY, N.C., Dec. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Fathom Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: FTHM) ("Fathom" or the "Company"), a national, technology-driven real estate services platform integrating residential brokerage, mortgage, title, and SaaS offerings, today announced the divesture of LiveBy assets to Move Concierge for $3 million.
