Descriptiontext

KIC Realty is a privately held Canadian real estate brokerage operating under the legal name KIC Realty Inc., headquartered in Calgary, Alberta. Founded in 2023, the company provides residential real estate brokerage services to home buyers, home sellers, and renters across three provinces: British Columbia (Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey), Alberta (Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer, Fort McMurray), and Ontario (Toronto, Durham, Kawartha). The company differentiates through a digital-first platform built on a third-party website framework (agentlocator.ca) that integrates with regional MLS systems including TRREB, Greater Vancouver REALTORS®, and the REALTORS® Association of Edmonton, providing access to 131,935+ active property listings.

KIC Realty's product suite centers on a Property Search and Map Search core, supplemented by a Home Worth automated valuation tool, Street Match neighborhood alerts, Daily Listings automated notifications, and Ratehub.ca-powered financial calculators (CMHC insurance, mortgage payment, and land transfer tax). In November 2025, the company integrated the Roomvu marketing platform at no cost to its agents, adding AI-driven staging and automated video content generation capabilities. The brokerage does not operate a proprietary mobile app and has no public API. The technology stack is composed of vendor integrations rather than in-house development.

The company operates on a commission-based revenue model, earning fees on closed real estate transactions following industry-standard Canadian commission structures (approximately 3.5%-5% in Ontario, tiered in Alberta and BC). The brokerage has no disclosed funding rounds, no parent company, and no institutional investors, suggesting organic growth funded through operations. Notable milestones include the June 2025 acquisition of Red Rose Realty and the appointment of Angela Papassotiriou as Vice President of Operations to support scaling across its multi-province footprint.
