FirstTeam’s Michele Harrington on Opportunities for Independent Brokerages
First Team Real Estate CEO Michele Harrington says the 50-year-old regional brokerage has modernized by doubling down on an agent-centric strategy—her “be behind the agent” campaign drove a reported 98% retention and stronger conversions—while upgrading systems and rebuilding its tech stack around AI to support agents. Harrington criticized the NAR settlement for excluding many brokers and called litigation and a weak housing market the toughest challenges in the firm’s history, forcing a focus on productivity, recruiting and grit. She warned that technology alone won’t drive production; accountability, coaching and local service are central to sustaining independent brokerages amid consolidation. Harrington argues First Team’s small-shareholder structure lets it prioritize agents over shareholders, giving it a competitive edge against larger merged firms.
