In real estate, success is never built overnight. Agents who enjoy long, sustainable careers know that their own hard work is only part of the equation. Equally important is the brokerage that stands behind them. The right brokerage provides more than a name on a business card. It offers stability, leadership, resources, and a network that strengthens every stage of an agent’s career.
Over the past year, our industry has witnessed several brokerages closing their doors, leaving agents to carry the consequences of instability they did not create. Careers have been disrupted, client trust has been shaken, and countless professionals have been forced to start over. These situations highlight an uncomfortable truth: no matter how talented or driven an agent may be, aligning with a brokerage that lacks financial prudence or long-term vision can put their livelihood at risk.
That is why being part of a brokerage with a proven track record of strength and stability is so vital. At CIR Realty, our nearly 1,000 agents have chosen us because they know they are supported by one of the most established and trusted names in Canadian real estate. Our financial foundation is solid, our leadership team brings decades of experience navigating both thriving and challenging markets, and our values prioritize sustainability over short-term gain. Agents who join us know their businesses are being built on bedrock, not shifting sand.
But stability alone is not enough. To truly thrive, REALTORS® need access to opportunity, and opportunity comes through connection. CIR Realty is deeply embedded in the communities we serve, with a reputation for excellence that extends across Alberta and British Columbia. At the same time, through our affiliations and partnerships, our agents are part of a global network that opens doors far beyond local borders. This dual strength of local expertise combined with international reach equips our professionals to serve clients wherever life takes them.
Ultimately, choosing a brokerage is choosing a future. At CIR Realty, our agents are not only protected by a company that has stood the test of time, but they are also empowered to grow their businesses with confidence, knowing they have the backing of an organization that has both the strength and the vision to be here for decades to come. It is why so many real estate professionals have chosen to call CIR Realty home, and why we continue to be trusted by close to 1,000 agents who believe in building careers of true longevity.
