TORONTO & NEW YORK--()--The Real Brokerage Inc. (TSX: REAX) (NASDAQ: REAX), the fastest-growing publicly traded real estate brokerage, announced today that Active Realty and Power Real Estate Group, two of Southern California's most productive real estate teams, have joined the Company.

Active Realty is led by Justin Tye and Power Real Estate is led by Jose Samano and Jeff Mcgonigle. Together, they bring a total of 130 agents serving Southern California from Los Angeles to San Diego.

“We are thrilled to welcome Active Realty and Power Real Estate to Real,” said Real President Sharran Srivatsaa. “Justin, Jose and Jeff are some of the most hard-working people in the residential real estate industry. They have built great teams founded on collaboration and putting the needs of their agents and clients first, and will significantly enhance the Real brand throughout Southern California.”

Founded in 2014, Tye brings two decades of experience to Active Realty and has grown the team to rank No. 1 among the top real estate teams in Southern California, according to RealTrends. In addition to being an active producer, Tye is a mentor to real estate professionals and young entrepreneurs. Active Realty’s team of experienced agents serve 208 markets spanning from western Los Angeles to Orange County, Riverside, San Bernardino and San Diego. In 2022, the 30-agent team completed 1,000 transactions valued at $1 billion in total volume.

“As a producing broker who is passionate about helping people find their dream home, Real provides the support that allows me to focus on my clients, knowing that my agents have what they need to succeed,” Tye said.

Formed in 2021, Anaheim-based Power Real Estate has built a reputation for embracing diversity. It brings a total of 100 agents who hail from more than two dozen different countries. In 2022, the team closed 675 transactions valued at more than $500 million. Samano is an award-winning real estate professional with more than 19 years of real estate experience. He has built top-performing teams that have ranked among the Top 10 at some of the nation’s largest brokerage firms. Mcgonigle began his real estate career in 2018 following a successful career in retail management. Prior to teaming with Samano to form Power Real Estate, Mcgonigle used his management experience to build the top-producing real estate office in Anaheim for a national brand.

“We’ve always been focused on attracting like-minded people to our team, and Real’s Co-Sponsored Revenue Share program allows our agents to be part of the ecosystems of two different $500 million teams. Our culture is built on collaboration, and now everyone at Power has the opportunity to benefit from being part of a much larger network,” Samano said.

“The world gets smaller when you collaborate. Our decision to join Real came down to what made the most sense for our agents, and Real provides the best opportunity for growth,” Mcgonigle said.
