SPIRE GROUP

What SPIRE GROUP does

SPIRE GROUP operates FIND Real Estate, a New York City-based real estate brokerage founded in 1996, delivering residential and commercial property services across buying, selling, and renting. The firm employs 101–250 staff and operates from its headquarters at 5 West 37th Street, 12th Floor, in Midtown Manhattan, with an extended geographic footprint into the Philadelphia Metro market. The company claims more than 10,000 completed transactions over its operating history and markets itself around human-guided property matching rather than algorithmic search, positioning expert agents as the primary deliverable.

The core product surface comprises three transaction lines—Buy Services (with integrated mortgage, legal, and appraisal support), Sell Services (featuring professional staging, strategic pricing, and continuous open houses), and Rent Services (offering access to off-market rental inventory through established landlord relationships)—augmented by three add-on modules: Mortgage Services, Property Management, and Construction and Real Estate Development. The structural differentiator is an agent equity ownership model in which top-performing agents hold equity stakes in the firm, aligning agent incentives with client outcomes. The platform is delivered via a website property search portal and a network of certified agents, with supporting marketing through blog content (including the Q1 2026 NYC Market Report), social media, and email newsletters.

The business model is commission-based, with rates negotiated individually with agents and not publicly disclosed. Founder and CEO Bianka Yankov leads the organization. No external funding rounds, institutional investors, patents, regulatory actions, or named enterprise customers are disclosed in the available data. Revenue is not publicly reported, and the company operates as a privately held independent brokerage with no formal parent-subsidiary structure evidenced.
