Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Keller Williams Realty: Largest US residential brokerage by agent count. Direct co-listing partner of Global Real Estate Consulting; competes for the same Oakland County buyers and sellers with vastly greater agent network, technology platform (KW Command), and marketing reach.
• Coldwell Banker Realty: National full-service brokerage franchise. Active co-listing partner on commercial deals (e.g., the $2.8M Farmington Hills listing) and a direct competitor for both residential and commercial clients in the Michigan market.
• RE/MAX: Global residential and commercial real estate franchise with strong agent-driven model comparable to the boutique brokerage structure. Competes for the same Michigan residential investor and primary-home buyer pool.
• Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices: National franchise network backed by Berkshire Hathaway. Competes for premium and luxury Michigan residential listings with brand prestige and global referral network analogous to Global's international positioning.
• Century 21: Global residential and commercial real estate franchise. Competes for the same cross-border investor clientele through its own international referral network, challenging Global's Japan connection.

Direct peers

• Compass: Tech-forward national brokerage combining agent-led service with proprietary technology platform. Represents the most direct competitive threat in the premium residential segment where Global Real Estate Consulting also operates.

Emerging players

• eXp Realty: Cloud-based brokerage with low-overhead agent model and aggressive commission splits. Disrupts traditional broker economics and competes for the same agent recruits and seller clients in Michigan markets.
• Redfin: Tech-enabled residential brokerage with salaried agents and consumer-facing platform. Competes directly for Michigan sellers through lower commission offerings and a strong digital consumer brand.

Regional players

• Howard Hanna Real Estate: Largest privately held regional brokerage in the US, headquartered in Pennsylvania with strong Midwest presence. Closest regional peer competing head-to-head in Michigan suburbs for residential listings.

Others

• Zillow: Largest US real estate search and lead-generation platform. Not a brokerage but the dominant consumer-facing property portal that drives lead flow for (and increasingly disintermediates) traditional brokerages like Global Real Estate Consulting.
