55-agent team bolsters Real’s Twin Cities
presence bringing more than 1,000 home sales valued at nearly $370
million since 2021
The Real Brokerage Inc. (NASDAQ: REAX), a technology platform
reshaping real estate for agents, home buyers and sellers, today
announced that the Grant Johnson Group, a fast-growing team serving
the St. Paul/Minneapolis area has joined Real. The addition brings
55 agents to Real, which now has more than 22,000 throughout the
U.S. and Canada, an increase of more than 8,000 agents since the
end of 2023.
A 30-year real estate veteran, Johnson formed his current team
in 2021 with 12 agents, and attributes the team’s fast growth to
the people he has surrounded himself with.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Grant and his powerhouse team to
Real. It’s fitting that a fast-growing team, focused on building a
strong culture, has helped us surpass 22,000 agents,” said Real
President Sharran Srivatsaa. “In a short time, Grant and his team
have carved out a unique space in Minneapolis’ ultra-competitive
market, and we’re looking forward to partnering with them to
achieve even more.”
The team, which relies on internet lead generation for more than
70% of its business, has completed more than 1,000 home sales with
a transaction value of approximately $370 million since 2021. This
includes 300 sales valued at $110 million in 2023. The team is on
track to sell 450 homes in 2024.
“Real is in alignment with our culture. Its collaborative
approach is designed to prevent silos and offers the best platform
from which to grow,” Johnson said.
The leadership team at Grant Johnson Group includes Jeff
Montgomery (Finance), Tammi Roach (Agent Attraction), and Amber
Urlacher (Operations), all of whom also serve as producing agents.
They are supported by Katie Mahler, who manages shared operations,
and Megan Nelson, who leads marketing efforts.
