Keller Williams – the no 1 estate agency in North America. Now in South Africa

Keller Williams® Realty, Inc. (KWRI) is an international real estate franchise company with more than 90 000 real estate agents across the world – currently the LARGEST residential real estate company in North America (USA & Canada)

Keller Williams Realty (KWSA) launched in SOUTH AFRICA at the beginning of 2013

During September 2013, I had the privilege to attend a worldwide conference at Keller Williams in Austin, Texas. It was attended by no less than 13 500 successful business owners, all seated, in one hall at the Austin Conference Centre. It was a mind blowing experience. To witness and experience such professionalism, enthusiasm and integrity from people in the property industry was surreal.

Keller Williams Realty is “a training and coaching company that also happens to be in the business of real estate.” That’s why a total commitment to training and coaching is at the heart of what sets Keller Williams Realty apart. At last a company that understands what is critical to success!

So why is Keller Williams so successful? What sets them apart (apart from the world class education) from the ordinary estate agencies that we have come to know over the past few years? Is it not just another same old same old new entrant to the market?

There are so many answers to these questions. Let me list some:

  • KW is a company for agents build by agents (They really understand that their associates (agents) are their MOST important asset). KW recognise that associates as a brand is more important
  • Highest integrity and values from the exco team (See my article about “Fish rots from the head”)
  • Caring nature (Social responsibility – helping their associates and the community at large in time of need)
  • Continuous practical and relevant training for new and existing associates (agents).
  • And more …..

I would like to predict that Keller Williams SA WILL take the property market by storm. They WILL turn the property market upside down. They WILL be the largest player in the market within the next 2-3 years.
