As president and chief executive officer of DotLoop, G. Austin Allison is responsible for setting and implementing the strategic direction of the company and ensuring that DotLoop provides cutting-edge technology and innovative solutions to its clients.

Austin's combination of life and work experiences has shaped his successful business career. In addition to contributing to the development of several start-up businesses and non-profit organizations, he is a licensed realtor in the State of Ohio, and practiced commercial real estate leasing and development for a publicly-traded real estate investment trust. He founded The DotLoop Company after being burdened by the inefficiencies that existed in every real property sale or purchase.  

Austin is leading DotLoop's quest to secure its position as a technology innovator and solutions provider for a variety of industries, with an initial focus on real estate. DotLoop's web-based software propels the real estate industry's embracement of technology for better client service and results. The product promotes a significant amount of savings in the form of time and money for brokers and real estate agents, and advances corporate environmental contribution by becoming more Green-friendly through the reduction and eventual elimination of paper waste.

Implementing DotLoop helps reduce the amount of fuel burned by agents and their clients when having to drive multiple trips to initial documents. It also reduces the user's carbon footprint allowing professionals to do more work from home. Additionally, it eliminates excess document storage costs.

Mr. Allison earned his B.S. in Construction Management with minors in Architecture and Engineering from the University of Cincinnati, where he graduated Summa Cum Laude at the top of a nationally-ranked program.  He is currently pursuing a J.D. at University of Cincinnati College of Law as an Honor's Scholar. 

As a rising star in the technology industry, he is frequently sought after by local and national trade organizations to provide fundamental real estate and entrepreneurial advice and education. As a longtime member of the University of Cincinnati community, he is often called upon to speak to and mentor students in the University's technology and entrepreneurship programs. His commitment to leadership excellence and his passion for helping young entrepreneurs contributes to his personal goal of contributing to a sustainable business community.  Austin was recently featured as one of Ohio's most talented young entrepreneurs in Columbus CEO Magazine. 

Austin is an avid volunteer and encourages DotLoop and its employees to contribute time and service to the communities where they live and work. He is currently involved with numerous charitable organizations, but spends the majority of his time with Habitat for Humanity and the Mr. Bob Foundation, a non-profit established by Austin to provide books for elementary-age students in need.
