reAlpha Tech Corp. (“reAlpha” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: AIRE), a
real estate technology company developing and commercializing
artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies, today announces the
acquisition of USRealty Brokerage Solutions, LLC (“US Realty”) and
an investment into Unreal Estate Inc. (“Unreal”).
In connection with the acquisition and
investment, US Realty entered into a services agreement with a
broker from Unreal Estate LLC to provide broker services and
facilitate access to brokerage licenses in up to 33 U.S. states.
This agreement is expected to enable reAlpha’s expansion into such
states, subject to the completion of all applicable regulatory and
legal requirements. reAlpha expects to continue seeking additional
brokerage licenses to expand its services nationwide by the end of
2025.
“This acquisition and the related services
agreement will provide reAlpha with the ability to obtain up to 33
U.S. state brokerage licenses, which we expect will expand our
reach in the U.S. and reduce the time and costs associated with
organic growth,” said Giri Devanur, Chief Executive Officer of
reAlpha. “We believe that investing in Unreal will strengthen our
operational capabilities, creating opportunities to expand
reAlpha’s platform and support growth in our service businesses,
including Be My Neighbor and Hyperfast.”
For additional details concerning the terms of
this acquisition, investment and separate services agreement,
please reference reAlpha’s Current Report on Form 8-K, which will
be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”).

About the reAlpha
PlatformreAlpha (previously called “Claire”), announced on
April 24, 2024, is reAlpha’s generative AI-powered,
commission-free, homebuying platform. The tagline: No fees. Just
keys.™ – reflects reAlpha’s dedication to eliminating
traditional barriers and making homebuying more accessible and
transparent.
reAlpha’s introduction aligns with major shifts
in the real estate sector after the National Association of
Realtors agreed to settle certain lawsuits upon being found to have
violated antitrust laws, resulting in inflated fees paid to
buy-side agents. This development is expected to result in the end
of the standard six percent sales commission, which equates to
approximately $100 billion in realtor fees paid annually. The
reAlpha platform offers a cost-free alternative for homebuyers by
utilizing an AI-driven workflow that assists them through the
homebuying process.
Homebuyers using the reAlpha platform’s
conversational interface will be able to interact with Claire,
reAlpha’s AI buyer’s agent, to guide them through every step of
their homebuying journey, from property search to closing the deal.
By offering support 24/7, Claire is poised to make the homebuying
process more efficient, enjoyable, and cost-efficient. Claire
matches buyers with their dream homes using over 400 data
attributes and provides insights into market trends and property
values. Additionally, Claire can assist with questions, booking
property tours, submitting offers, and negotiations.
Currently, the reAlpha platform is under limited
availability for homebuyers located in 20 counties in Florida, but
reAlpha is actively seeking new MLS and brokerage licenses that
will enable expansion into more U.S. states.
