"From real estate listings to high quality movers to homeowner insurance, Relocation.com offers a broad set of services for those looking to move or in the process of settling in their new home. This represents the third year Relocation.com has been included on Inc.'s fastest growing private companies list, which I believe speaks to the value our services provide consumers."
The 2010 Inc. 5000, unveiled today on Inc.com, serves as a unique illustration of the profound changes taking place in the U.S. economy.

(There were 121 Real Estate firms on the inaugural Inc. 5000 in 2007.)
"The leaders of the companies on this year's Inc. 5000 have figured out how to grow their businesses during the longest recession since the Great Depression," said Inc., president Bob LaPointe. "The 2010 Inc. 5000 showcases a particularly hardy group of entrepreneurs."
