As we make the transition, Real Living will focus on excellence in five key areas: technology, sales, marketing, training and business planning. These are areas that we will invest in to make our combined organization into one of the most sought after brands in the business. Our primary goal will continue to be to help our agents, offices and franchisees grow their business.
