Executive Summary

Now a wholly owned subsidiary of Compass, Anywhere Advisors helped solidify the market dominance of its parent company before it was acquired by Compass in early 2026.

Anywhere launched in 2006 as Realogy, born as a spin-off from the real estate, travel and hospitality conglomerate Cendant. Realogy housed other big names in real estate from its inception, including Corcoran, Coldwell Banker, Century 21 and Sotheby’s International Realty. Its services included real estate brokerage, relocation, title, and insurance. Realogy went public in 2012, and its 21-year CEO, Richard A. Smith, passed leadership of the company over to former Capital One executive Ryan Schneider in late 2017. The organization rebranded to Anywhere Real Estate in 2022.

Anywhere had been a major force in the real estate industry for years, holding between 5-7% of all US sales volume for nearly a decade. As of 2025, Anywhere counted nearly 50,000 agents on its roster.

Production Trends

Sales Volume (% of Market Share vs. Total Volume)

Like most brokerages, Anywhere Advisors took a hit on sales volume between 2022-2023 among its company-owned brokerages due to interest rate hikes and pandemic-era macroeconomic conditions.

However, over the past two years, the brokerage has begun to recover: Its 2023 low hovered around $176 billion in sales, but climbed to $186.7 billion in 2024 and landed at $196 billion in 2025, its last year under the enterprise banner of Anywhere Real Estate, during which it boasted 5.8% of all US sales.

In 2025 quarterly filings, Anywhere cited strong showings from luxury brands Coldwell Banker Global Luxury, Corcoran and Sotheby's International Realty, which "significantly" outperformed the market.

Transaction Sides (% of Market Share vs. Total Sides)

Sales volume increased in recent years, but the volume of transaction sides has not – indicating a higher per-sale volume, as opposed to an increase in transactions. Anywhere transacted with 247,998 sides in 2025, down half a percent from 2024, which was itself 1% down from 2023.

Agent Count (% of Market Share vs. Total Agents)

Anywhere Advisors’ agent count fell 18.5% from its 2022 peak of 59,800 agents. While a rough year for the industry accounted for the initial attrition, Anywhere’s personnel count continued to diminish modestly these past couple years, dropping by about 4,200 agents between 2024 and 2025, ending the year with 48,735 agents total.

Company Outlook

Anywhere Real Estate completed its merger with Compass in January 2026, following an expedited DOJ approval process that has come under fire. Federal lawmakers have criticized the speedy closing, saying the $1.6 billion merger did not get a proper review from the DOJ – and raising the possibility that the deal may come under antitrust scrutiny in the future.

Compass is also a publicly traded brokerage that operates nationwide, and after achieving positive cash flow in Q2, Compass ended 2025 with year-over-year revenue growth of approximately $7 billion.

Company Structure

Upon completion of the acquisition in early 2026, Compass CEO Robert Reffkin indicated that Anywhere’s portfolio of well-known real estate brands would continue to exist. Compass’s tech platform would be available for all agents and brokers under the combined entity, and those units would be able to operate with “the same independence they’ve always had.”
