Global real estate franchising expert Larry Oberly has partnered with US-based real estate network, Realty ONE Group, to expand the brand’s international presence.

California-based real estate brand, Realty ONE Group International, has partnered with the former vice president of global development of RE/MAX, Larry Oberly, to find strategic partners and open more locations worldwide.

Founded in 2005 by current CEO, Kuba Jewgieniew, Realty ONE Group has grown to encompass more than 20,000 real estate professionals in over 250 locations, across 25 countries and territories.

Since 2021, Realty ONE Group has expanded beyond its locations in the US and Canada to over 25 countries worldwide, including Costa Rica, Singapore, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Ecuador and Bolivia.

Notably last year, Oberly and Realty ONE Group’s vice president of international, Daniel Hernandez, sold master franchising rights to six new countries and 28 new offices in its existing international locations.

Hernandez brings over three decades of experience as an independent real estate broker, and has established and managed multiple offices in the US and internationally.

The network said Hernandez’s wealth of real estate insights and extensive network of industry connections would equip him to grow Realty ONE Group’s global footprint further.

Hernandez shared that he aims to leverage Realty ONE Group’s network and business model by 2025 to “continue to make history in real estate globally”.

Oberly will also oversee Realty ONE Group’s global expansion efforts, using his 30 years of franchising experience in real estate, quick-service restaurants, and printing services to bolster the brand’s overseas presence.

He previously led domestic and global operations for nearly 20 years with RE/MAX, and was responsible for over 4,000 offices and 50,000 real estate professionals in 100 countries.

“I am excited about helping guide the growing number of exceptional Realty ONE Group master franchisees and help them achieve their business and personal goals,” Oberly said.

Jewgieniew said that the brand’s partnership with Oberly marked “just the beginning” of its global expansion efforts.

“We want entrepreneurs and real estate professionals around the world to achieve greater success faster, just like our ONE Family in North America,” Jewgieniew said.
