CITIEA

What CITIEA does

CITIEA is a privately held real estate brokerage founded in September 2024 by Teresa Hague and headquartered at 7333 E Doubletree Ranch Rd, Suite 200, Scottsdale, Arizona. The firm operates in the Greater Phoenix Area — including Phoenix, Scottsdale, and the East Valley — through a network of approximately 160 agents and has closed roughly 1,658–1,700 transaction units with reported real estate sold of approximately $878 million (per the company) and "nearly $1 billion" (per a third-party partnership announcement) in cumulative transaction volume. The brokerage serves individual home sellers, home buyers, and luxury property clients, with a stated agent productivity of 410% of the MLS average listings-per-agent benchmark in 2025, compared with Compass and RE/MAX at 189% and Keller Williams at 132%.

CITIEA's product surface is built around several proprietary programs that function as differentiated selling methodologies rather than conventional commission-based brokerage. 72SOLD is the core home-selling methodology, validated by four independent studies (2020–2023) showing median sales prices 7.8%–12% above local MLS averages, and a 2026 study of 12,642 sellers showing 6.3% above-MLS pricing. Homes2X (launched March 2025) is a buyout program in which CITIEA advances up to 80% of appraised home value, charges a 6.9% service fee at resale, and shares net resale profit with the original seller. Just 990 (launched September 2024) is a flat-fee listing service priced at $990 at closing that emerged in response to the NAR settlement. See Homes First is a notification system providing buyers with property alerts 1–4 days before listings reach MLS, Zillow, or Realtor.com. Hague Luxury Network is the luxury division, claiming $8 million as the highest-price home sold and $2.4 billion in cumulative luxury volume.

The business model combines traditional transaction-fee commissions with flat-fee (Just 990) and service-fee (Homes2X, 6.9%) pricing across its program portfolio. GTM is sales-led: agents are recruited into exclusive territories and receive guaranteed lead flow from CITIEA's marketing programs, which generate 1,000+ monthly seller sign-ups. The company has entered a franchise affiliation with Compass International Holdings (announced April 2026) and a regional partnership with Brands by Integra (announced April 2026), the latter anchoring an 18-state Southwest expansion strategy. Revenue is not directly disclosed; the firm reports only transaction volume, not commission income or brokerage-level revenue.
