United's Founder and CEO recognized for
shaping the future of real estate
DALLAS, Oct. 31,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- United® Real Estate Group
(United) Founder and Chief Executive Officer Dan Duffy has been selected as a 2023 Vanguard
award recipient. The award recognizes forward-thinking leaders
shaping the future of real estate. According to Housing Wire, its
100 Vanguard honorees were selected for outstanding leadership
amidst market volatility.
In September at its annual conference, Elevate, United unveiled
major initiatives for high-demand services and programs, filling a
void for self-employed agents: United Real Estate Group Healthcare
and Financial Wellness programs.
Historically, real estate practitioners have had limited access
to health coverage and retirement savings programs, such as
401k plans, unlike W2 employees in
many industries. These two programs satisfy longstanding needs:
- United Real Estate Group Healthcare offers agents and staff
access to affordable, high-quality PPO health plans, dental, vision
and supplemental insurance. Participants incur annual savings of
$10,000 on average, compared to
open-market plans – a boon for agents in a tightening real estate
market.
- United's Financial Wellness Program improves the financial
outcome of agents' careers and lives by removing them from the
feast-to-famine cycle and building net worth, which is expected to
deliver tens of millions of dollars in improvement for its agents
in the coming years based on the measured results to date since
launch in September.
- Agents learn money management skills and receive investment
management services, strategic tax planning, financial planning,
and estate & retirement planning from curated partners United
has secured on behalf of its agents. As a result, they are better
positioned to weather real estate market cycles, remain in the
industry and meet their personal and family financial goals.
By closing these healthcare and retirement gaps, United is in a
more advantageous position for recruiting than other brokerages and
on a level playing field with private employers in vying for
talent. The programs have far-reaching implications for United,
opening up the door to a larger talent base by removing longtime
barriers of entry into the profession while at the same time,
improving the long-term outcomes of the lives of its agents.
"It's exciting to see that organizations like Housing Wire are
taking notice of the innovative programs our team regularly rolls
out to United and United Country Real Estate agents, brokers and
auctioneers. I am humbled by the Vanguard Award and gladly accept
it on behalf of our talented team of passionate professionals,"
said Duffy. "Our five-year strategic subway map is being delivered
with precision and at an accelerating pace," noted Duffy. "We have
matched so-called 'full service' traditional brokerage model
offerings and, in many of our offerings, we are providing resources
and tools that we alone offer, giving our agents a competitive
advantage. The coolest part of this is that we are doing this while
offering the highest payouts of agent commissions, according to
Mike DelPrete. Super fun to be part
of all of it and to work with such an incredible team."
"As a three-decade veteran of the real estate industry and
having worked with some of the finest people in the business, I can
say that Dan is truly a unique and powerful leader," commented
United Real Estate President Rick
Haase. "We've moved forward with Dan's original vision to
over 21,000 agents operating in 42 states in only 12 years. From
concept to reality with a man who truly cares about the
organization, our agents, brokers, employees and the clients we
serve. A head for business and a heart for people, and it shows in
our results."
