From Outsider to Insiders to Innovators to Leaders Our origin story began when CEO Laura Brady met President Chad Roffers back in 2004. Building on Chad’s experience in Silicon Valley and Laura’s time in corporate retail at Neiman Marcus, as a top-producing luxury real estate agent and broker, they came together to create a more efficient method for buying and selling the world’s finest homes. In November 2021, we were acquired by Sotheby’s, the world’s premier destination for fine art and luxury goods, and Realogy Holdings Corp., the largest full-service residential real estate services company in the United States. Today, we continue to partner with all real estate companies and, through these additional resources and reach, service all brands and clientele better than ever before.
