According to HousingWire, the leadership structure for Real REMAX Group has now been fully outlined following the merger between Real Brokerage and REMAX. While the appointments of Jenna Rozenblat as president and Alex Vidal to lead REMAX received public attention, the company disclosed additional executive roles through an SEC filing. Tamir Poleg, who serves as CEO of Real Brokerage, will continue as CEO of the combined entity.
The financial and technology sides of the new organization are being led by executives who came through the Real Brokerage merger. Ravi Jani, the CFO, previously worked in investor relations and financial planning at Real after earlier roles at investment firms like Citadel. Pritesh Damani, who takes the CTO position, has been with Real since 2021 and founded RealtyCrunch before its acquisition. During his tenure, he developed Real's transaction platform and AI assistant tools.
Legal and operational leadership draws from both sides of the combination. Alix Lumpkin, the chief legal officer, joined Real in 2023 and brings a decade of experience from homebuilder Lennar where she handled legal matters. Amy Somerville, the new chief operating officer, comes from SUCCESS Enterprises but has prior history with REMAX, where she worked from 2004 to 2020 in various development and engagement roles.
The marketing function will continue under Abigail Lee, who has deep roots at REMAX spanning back to 1998, with various marketing leadership positions throughout her tenure. Meanwhile, the company is shifting its mortgage operations strategy by stepping back from Motto Mortgage. Kate Gurevich, who led Real's One Real Mortgage operation, is taking over mortgage services from Vic Lombardo at REMAX.
A company representative explained to HousingWire that this new leadership arrangement brings together talent from both organizations to leverage their combined strengths. The structural changes reflect how Real and REMAX are attempting to integrate while maintaining distinct operational identities across their respective brands.
What I am seeing locally here in the Bay Area is that real estate services consolidation continues to reshape how agents work and what tools they have access to. When you see a company like this building out leadership across technology, operations, and client services, it signals they're thinking about scale and efficiency in a market where agents are increasingly choosing between the big platforms and smaller boutique options. For our buyers and sellers in Fremont and across the East Bay, this kind of organizational strength can mean better technology support for agents, though the real question remains whether that translates into better service for you on your transaction.
