United® Real Estate Houston Celebrates 1-Year Anniversary with a Milestone of 140 Agents

Online, October 9, 2013 (Newswire.com) - United® Real Estate, a fast-growing urban-centric real estate and franchise operation company, today announces its achievement of reaching 140 agents in the United Real Estate Houston office, just one year after its grand opening. United Real Estate is recognized for its disruptive 100 percent commission strategy, which is complemented by an unmatched full-service solution that provides the latest training, marketing, and technology tools to agents and brokers alike, while eliminating the fees that most real estate companies and franchisors charge in urban America. Respected Houston real estate agent, Sheila Rhodes is the 140th agent to join the Houston office.

Sheila Rhodes is joining the United Real Estate team after more than six years with Keller Williams Reality, where she specialized in short sales as well as listing and selling residential investment properties.

"I joined United Real Estate because of the 100 percent commission plan and education opportunity. There were other brokers offering the 100 percent commission model, but they didn't have as much training and education available," said Sheila Rhodes, United Real Estate agent. "While Keller Williams Realty was good to me, I did not feel they were providing enough services for the amount I was paying. I am looking for a quality broker that provides current services that are trending towards the future - United is an excellent fit."

As the 140th agent to join the Houston United Real Estate office, Sheila's respect within the Real Estate industry solidifies United's professional growth as an agency that houses forward thinking agents.

"I am extremely excited to have reached our official one-year mark, and to be hitting it with such strong numbers and positive momentum," said Dianna Moore, Managing Broker of United Real Estate Houston. "We have new and seasoned agents, full and part-time agents, all of whom are enjoying our impressive support, training and cutting-edge technology and tools, which allows them the freedom to develop and grow their business with efficiency and effectiveness. I'm very proud of my United Houston team, and look forward to our continued growth."

"We are thrilled to celebrate the Houston office one-year anniversary by adding such an outstanding real estate professional like Sheila," said Dan Duffy, CEO of United Real Estate. "She is the ideal addition to the United team, as she represents our new model of supporting agents and brokers with a complete understanding of the marketing and technology tools provided by United to enable them for success."
