On the Cover
‘We Are United’
How United Real Estate took the lead among 100%-commission companies by seeing things differently
Estate is thriving. The brokerage has also grown its market share and agent size exponentially over the past decade. The Dallas-headquartered company has soared in agent growth and is now the eighth largest in the U.S., jumping from 139th in RISMedia’s 2020 Power Broker Report to the largest flat-fee brokerage in transaction count today. United has done what few brokerages have been able to achieve: meteoric success without sacrificing its core principles. And it’s all by intentional design, says CEO Dan Duffy. “We intentionally built something that wasn’t an incremental improvement on the status quo,” he says. In this month’s cover story, take a closer look at the winning model that prioritizes agent profitability and happiness above all else.
