Edmonton’s Top-Producing Independent Brokerage, YEGPro Realty, Joins Real

Real’s presence in Alberta surpasses 1,000 agents

The Real Brokerage Inc. (NASDAQ: REAX), a technology platform reshaping real estate for agents, home buyers and sellers, today announced that YEGPro Realty, Edmonton’s top-producing independent brokerage, has joined Real. Led by Jessie McCracken and Will Hickey, YEGPro adds 57 agents to Real’s Alberta agent community, which now exceeds 1,000 agents.

McCracken, who consistently ranks among the top 5% of the region’s producing agents, and Hickey, also a top performer, purchased the three-agent brokerage in 2017. Since that time, YEGPro Realty has grown by word of mouth to become Edmonton’s top-producing independent brokerage firm based on sales. YEGPro distinguishes itself by focusing on offering new agents unparalleled training and mentorship, and a culture that attracts and retains some of the Edmonton metro area’s top producers. The brokerage has closed home sales of $1.4 billion since 2021.

"We're thrilled to welcome YEGPro Realty, Edmonton's top-producing boutique brokerage, to the Real family. Jessie and Will are forward-thinking leaders who share our vision for innovation and collaboration,” said Real President Sharran Srivatsaa. “Reaching the 1,000-agent milestone in Alberta underscores the strength of our community and our relentless focus on building the future of real estate together."

“The move to Real just made sense,” said McCracken. “Joining Real provides the best opportunity for our agents to be one step ahead. Our culture of collaboration and training remains, along with the YEGPro brand, while our agents benefit from being part of something bigger. They will have more agents to collaborate with and all of the benefits of Real’s financial opportunities and technology platform.”

Hickey said, “The landscape of brokerage offerings has transformed significantly, and we believe that Real provides much greater stability and opportunities for our realtors. Jessie and I are thrilled to continue in our leadership roles and influence our agents. We are eager for the next phase of success for our YEGPro agents."
