Today on RealTrending, Tracey interviews Ryan Schneider, the CEO of Anywhere Real Estate. This episode originally aired on our sister show, Power House, but this week we are bringing it to the feeds of our real estate audience.


Tracey and Ryan talk about Anywhere’s refocus on luxury and what they think is going to happen to M&A as the market shifts this year. They also talk about AI’s relationship with operational efficiency and a surprisingly effective place to turn for mentorship — your agents.


Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn:

  • Settling litigation early provided a competitive advantage for Anywhere.
  • Investing in luxury markets has led to significant growth.
  • M&A opportunities are expected to increase as the market shifts.
  • Market predictions indicate a potential recovery in home sales over the next year.
  • Mentorship from agents is important for leadership development.
  • Proactively embracing change is crucial for success in the industry.
