As the real estate brokerage space continues to consolidate, creating large national firms with massive scale, critics have claimed this move will lead to a homogenization of formerly disparate brands.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

However, Sue Yannaccone, who was recently promoted to chief operations officer<\/a> \u0438\u0437 Compass International Holdings<\/strong> (CIH) the parent company of \u041a\u043e\u043c\u043f\u0430\u0441<\/strong>, @\u0445\u0430\u0440\u0430\u043a\u0442\u0435\u0440\u0438\u0441\u0442\u0438\u043a\u0438<\/strong>, \u041c\u0435\u0436\u0434\u0443\u043d\u0430\u0440\u043e\u0434\u043d\u0430\u044f \u043d\u0435\u0434\u0432\u0438\u0436\u0438\u043c\u043e\u0441\u0442\u044c Christie's<\/strong> and the six \u0413\u0434\u0435 \u0443\u0433\u043e\u0434\u043d\u043e \u041d\u0435\u0434\u0432\u0438\u0436\u0438\u043c\u043e\u0441\u0442\u044c<\/strong> brands, sees scale as a competitive advantage.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After nearly three decades in the real estate industry, the last decade of which spent at Anywhere Real Estate, Yannaccone knows a thing or two about leveraging a brokerage or a brand\u2019s scale.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In her first interview as COO of Compass International Holdings<\/a>, Yannaconne explains to real estate leaders at HousingWire\u2019s The Gathering in Austin, Texas, what integration with the Anywhere brands looks like and why scale is the next iteration of real estate. <\/p>\n

\u201cScale can be a super power if leveraged the right way. We had these six brands, nine business, mortgage, title global relocation, but we need to be able to leverage that scale, so we looked for the areas that we could integrate,\u201d Yannaccone told\u00a0attendees of HousingWire's The Gathering<\/strong> on Tuesday morning. \u201cWhere did we not need to do something eight or nine different ways, but then where did we need to be hyper differentiated to provide value to our customers, the real estate professionals and to the brands.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Differentiation is key<\/h2>\n

In order to achieve that hyper differentiation in areas where it is needed, Yannaccone said it\u2019s important to remain \u201cfiercely focused on enabling independence in the marketplace.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we partner with these companies as franchisees, that should be additive,\u201d Yannaccone said. \u201cWe have separate leaders for all of those businesses and anyone who knows our brokerage or franchise leaders knows that they have their own culture and what we do is help provide the fuel to get some octane for the growth that I believe is required to move forward.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Right now many firms in the industry, including Compass International Holdings<\/a>, have turned to mergers and acquisitions to fuel growth, and while she believes this is an effective growth strategy, she also feels strongly about the role organic growth should play in a business.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think you can ever stop your organic growth machine,\u201d she said. \u201cThat is something that you as a broker-owner have control over, more so than actually doing M&A. You should always have that machine or organic growth and always be looking at the opportunity for agent, mortgage or title talent to join your organization.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

When it comes to doing acquisitions, Yannaccone believes you need to have a clear reason behind why you want to acquire a company in order to create a successful merger.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cGrowth for growth\u2019s sake doesn\u2019t make any sense,\u201d she said. \u201cIf you are not thinking, \u2018What value does this bring to me, my agents and the consumers,\u2019 then how are you going to know what synergistic benefits you\u2019ll gain to allow you to then reinvest in your value proposition to help fuel more growth.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

These are questions CIH has had to dissect as it has navigated the massive merger <\/a>between Compass and Anywhere. While it is early days, Yannaccone said so far the integration<\/a> of two firms has gone smoothly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI think a lot of people have questions about how it is going to work for independently owned franchises. Are they going to have to do the three-phased marketing plan<\/a>? Are they going to use the platform? And what I have to remind everyone is that franchisees are independent, and we cannot tell a broker-owner how to run their business,\u201d Yannaccone said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While they are working to bring all agents over to the integrated technology platform, something Yannaccone said there is significant demand for, what CIH is primarily looking to do is provide more options to franchisees, brokers and agents.<\/p>\n

\u201cFundamentally it is about choice. We can\u2019t and we wouldn\u2019t dictate how someone runs their business \u2014 and I think that is a lot of the dialogue right now \u2014 but we are in the business because of real estate professionals, and it is critical that we continue to lean in and learn what matters and continue to provide those offerings. It is about giving more options to folks for how they want to move their business forward.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, Yannaccone said she anticipates seeing further industry consolidation and change.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe consolidation is inevitable,\u201d she said. \u201cI think you are going to continue to see a push for change and being open to new and different ways of doing things. I just hope that through all of this we don\u2019t lose sight of who we are ultimately doing this for, which is the homeowner and helping them to realize their dream.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
