Realty ONE Group Tops Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500® in Real Estate—Again

Realty ONE Group, a purpose-driven, modern lifestyle brand and one of the world’s fastest-growing real estate franchisors, has once again claimed the #1 spot in the Real Estate category of Entrepreneur magazine’s prestigious Franchise 500® ranking. This marks the fifth consecutive year that its UNBrokerage® model has earned the top honor.

This achievement also extends Realty ONE Group International’s streak to ten straight years on the overall Franchise 500® list. The company’s consistent upward trajectory reflects its ongoing innovation, vibrant COOLTURE®-centric ethos, and disciplined, sustainable growth—even amid a rapidly evolving real estate landscape.

“Earning this distinction for the fifth year in a row confirms what our franchise owners and real estate professionals have always known: Realty ONE Group isn’t just growing—we’re leading the industry forward,” said Kuba Jewgieniew, Founder and CEO of Realty ONE Group International. “We’ve built a people-first brand that challenges outdated industry norms and empowers entrepreneurs to build lifelong careers. These annual accolades are a testament to their hard work, loyalty, and the deep passion our global ONE Family has for this brand.”

According to Jason Feifer, Editor in Chief of Entrepreneur, “These 500 companies represent the most reliable paths to entrepreneurship in America. Each has undergone our rigorous analysis, which identifies the true drivers of franchisee success.”

The Franchise 500® ranking is determined through a comprehensive evaluation across multiple criteria, including costs and fees, size and growth, franchisee support, brand strength, and financial performance.

Realty ONE Group’s sustained success stems from its proprietary business system, end-to-end coaching and support, bold lifestyle branding, and its distinctive, human-centered COOLTURE®—a deliberate departure from traditional real estate models. Today, the brand operates more than 450 offices across nearly 30 countries and territories, powered by over 20,000 real estate professionals. As it continues its global expansion, Realty ONE Group remains steadfast in its mission: “Changing lives through real estate.”
