This is not just about top-producing agents– it is all about being a good fit and onboarding the right people. I am very excited about working with Real's agents to build and protect something great here in Canada."

Real also appointed real estate broker Melissa Puklicz as Broker of Record for Ontario. Puklicz began her career in real estate in 2006, working for numerous brokerages including Royal LePage, Sutton Group Quantum and Century 21.
