(Dallas, TX)
– Three United®
Real Estate leaders have been highlighted among 300 real estate industry
professionals in RISMedia’s
2022
Real Estate Newsmakers
list – a vetted group of individuals moving their industry and companies forward.
Dan Duffy, CEO of United Real Estate Group, has been named a Luminary: the
founders and leaders who’ve built and grown their companies to achieve enormous
success. Duffy is recognized for his vision and forward-thinking strategy to
advance the industry. In 2020, United Real Estate’s brokerage operations grew nearly
450% year-over-year, earning the company its fifth recognition as an Inc.
5000 fastest-growing private U.S. company, among the top 25% in the ranking
and among the top .05% of all U.S. companies. This is Duffy’s eighth time to be
selected as a Newsmaker.
“Recognition by our
colleagues for the work we are doing is extremely validating. We are continuing
to innovate and increase value for brokerages, agents and their clients. As a
result, we are rapidly growing and attracting regionally dominant brokerages and,
in turn, becoming collectively stronger,” says Duffy. “Without the effort of
our leaders, staff, brokers and agents we would not be where we are today. They
deserve the praise.”
Rick
Haase, President of United
Real Estate & COO United Real Estate Group, has been
named an Influencer: those who inspire leadership, innovation,
creativity and success in their businesses and industry. Haase has worked to
accelerate United’s growth, overseeing multiple mergers and driving the
company’s mission to improve agents’ and brokers’ financial trajectories and
lives. Under his leadership, United Real Estate has grown to become the
eighth-largest real estate company in the United States. Haase makes his fifth
appearance in this year’s list.
“It
is an honor to serve the people who are working daily to propel our
company to the top of this industry. While
the real estate waters continue to bring a tidal
wave of change, our team is extremely adroit at navigating these waters to continue our incredible growth trajectory through 2022. A key initiative at United Real Estate Group is to ensure our employees, brokers and agents are equipped with the right services, support
and cloud-based productivity platform to
successfully navigate those waters,” stated Haase.
David Dickey, Chief Technology Officer of United Real Estate
Group, makes his debut in the Newsmakers list as a Trailblazer: the agents of change who are keeping pace
with innovation, moving the industry forward and improving agent-client
relationships. Dickey has led the development and deployment of United’s
proprietary Bullseye™ cloud-based productivity platform: an end-to-end
solution for agents and brokers as they grow their businesses and serve their
clients. The platform is driving its tech-enabled agent base to the forefront
of the industry and accelerating the growth of the organization.
“I am honored to be included
in this year’s Newsmakers list, but the credit goes to our technology team who has
brought our proprietary technology platform to fruition. It has resulted in a
highly scalable foundation built specifically for the needs of real estate
agents,” stated Dickey.
United Real Estate gained
attention inside and outside of the industry after catapulting from 139th largest real
estate brokerage to 8th largest in the nation in 2021, advancing 131
positions in a single year. United was recognized as one of America’s fastest-growing
franchises and the
fastest-growing brokerage with 447% increase in unit sales
year over year. United’s cloud-based technology platform, Bullseye™ also
garnered attention from the technology sector, earning United the accolade of Top 100 private technology
companies in the United States.

notables include Coinbase, Squarespace, ZipRecruiter, Asana and Calendly.
