  • Bachman Realty Group switches to The Real Brokerage – Houston Agent Magazine

    [ad_1]

    Dallas-based Bachman Realty Group, a 65-agent team led by Tiffany and Greg Bachman, is now a part of The Real Brokerage.

    The team was previously affiliated with Fathom Realty, where they achieved a sales volume of $245 million across 650 transactions in 2025 and ranked as the brokerage’s top team in the nation for four years in a row.

    Bachman Realty Group has a market reach that extends from the Metroplex to Houston, with a specialty in assisting military members and veterans. The Bachmans cited Real’s technology offerings as a main factor in their decision to switch brokerages.

    “Real’s technology is a gamechanger,” Tiffany Bachman said. “I was incredibly impressed by how intentional Real is about building a platform that actually helps agents grow.”

    In addition to working with military clientele, Bachman Group Realty sends care packages to Texas troops deployed in other countries.

    “Bachman Realty Group exemplifies what it means to build a people-first business that scales with purpose,” Tamir Poleg, chairman and CEO of The Real Brokerage, said in a press release. “Tiffany and Greg have created an environment where agents are supported, mentored and empowered to succeed. Their commitment to service, particularly within the military community, aligns strongly with Real’s values, and we’re excited to welcome their entire organization to the platform.”

  • Neda Navab named president of Compass – Houston Agent Magazine

    [ad_1]

    Neda Navab is now president of Compass Real Estate, Chairman and CEO Robert Reffkin announced in a Feb. 9 LinkedIn post.

    “In this role, Neda will focus exclusively on leading and supporting our Compass real estate professionals nationwide, and helping them achieve their full entrepreneurial potential,” Reffkin wrote. “Please join me in congratulating Neda as she leads Compass into this next chapter.”

    Previously, Navab and Rory Golod were presidents of brokerage operations for the company’s east and west regions, respectively. The change comes as Reffkin takes the role of chairman and CEO of the newly formed Compass International Holdings, created with the finalization of the Anywhere merger. That leaves Navab at the helm of the company’s nationwide residential brokerage.

    Reffkin noted in a press release that he and Navab will continue to work together closely, with her presidency focused on “helping Compass agents thrive.”

    A graduate of Harvard Business School and former Google staff member, Navab has been with Compass since 2018 when she was hired as Reffkin’s chief of staff.

    “Compass real estate professionals are among the most talented and dedicated agents in the industry, and it has been the privilege of my career to build alongside them,” Navab said in a press release. “I have spent years listening to what they want and need from their brokerage, and my commitment to delivering on that has never been stronger.”

    Navab recently ranked No. 60 on the Swanepoel Power 200 and was named to HousingWire’s Women of Influence list for 2025.

    “As president, I will work tirelessly to protect what makes Compass special while continuing to elevate the experience for our real estate professionals and their clients,” Navab added.

    The Hearn Team, led by Tory Hearn, is now affiliated with Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Gary Greene and will operate out of the brokerage’s Woodlands office. The team was formerly associated with Compass.

    “I wasn’t looking to make a change lightly,” Hearn said in a press release. “Gary Greene stood out for its culture, support and understanding of how established agents operate. It felt like the right long-term fit.”

    A resident of The Woodlands for over 40 years, Hearn founded The Hearn Team with his wife, Jenny Hearn, in 2008. Sales Associate Kezia Fredricksen joined the team in 2020.

    “Tory is someone other agents know, trust and enjoy working with,” said James Turner, director of growth for Gary Greene. “His reputation in the community and among his peers reflects the values and culture we’re intentional about building.”

  • Redfin CEO Glenn Kelman steps down after Rocket integration – Houston Agent Magazine

    [ad_1]

    Redfin CEO Glenn Kelman is leaving the company after 20 years, effective Jan. 16. 

    In an email to employees with the subject line, “Unemployed, In Greenland,” Kelman said the time had come for him to leave after the company completed its integration with Rocket Companies, which acquired the online brokerage for $1.75 billion last year. 

    “We’ll start the second, much-longer phase at next week’s all-company meeting, which is much-greater scale. Approaching that, I had to decide whether to be at Rocket for years,” Kelman wrote. “Instead, I want to try finding another mission-driven enterprise outside of real estate.” 

    After Kelman’s departure, Rocket CEO Varun Krishna will take over running Redfin until a successor is found. Kelman said he would remain in an advisory capacity through April 1.
