Laguna Niguel, Calif., May 23, 2019 – Realty ONE Group announced the first of several new initiatives meant to vault the already rapidly-expanding global franchisor into new markets and new segments of the industry. As one of the fastest growing real estate companies in the U.S. and one known for breaking down barriers, Realty ONE Group has partnered with HomeSmart, Evergreen Realty CEO, Randy Rector, to operate its seven Orange County and Inland Empire-based California offices. All of the offices will remain in the Realty ONE Group family.
“The change in our industry is fast and furious. We take it seriously and we’ll continue to do everything we can to give our real estate professionals the advantage in a competitive marketplace,” said Realty ONE Group CEO and Founder, Kuba Jewgieniew. “We’ve been working for months on several of these new initiatives that will change the game of real estate franchising and create new possibilities for not only our real estate professionals, but for title, mortgage, and our consumers within our industry.”
“Nothing will change for the foreseeable future, including fees. The best way to reach scale is to partner with ambitious leaders like Randy to create new business opportunities and give our agents a real retirement plan,” said Jewgieniew who is also meeting with other franchise owners outside of HomeSmart, and conversations have been very positive.
Rector has been operating a HomeSmart, Evergreen Realty franchise since 2005.
“This was an exciting opportunity for me to invest in a brand that continually generates innovative ideas, systems and processes,” said Rector. “Our Realty ONE Group professionals can expect the same great experience from their offices and more as the company continues to push boundaries and create new opportunities for them to be successful in their business.”
Jewgieniew and his Realty ONE Group leadership team is just beginning to roll out the fractional ownership model that will allow real estate professionals to share in profits and build a retirement program of their own, a move Jewgieniew knows will boost franchise sales and recruiting. The company’s ultimate goal is to be in 1000 cities in 100 countries, with 1000 locations and 100,000 real estate professionals.
Realty ONE Group has been named one of the fastest growing real estate franchisors by Entrepreneur Magazine and now operates more than 200 locations in 35 U.S. states, Washington D.C. and Canada. The company also just celebrated its 14th anniversary on May 1 with its traditional ONE Day of giving back to the community.
