Number ONE brokerage in the Greater Toronto Area for 2013

Right at Home Realty Inc., Brokerage achieves number one for 2013!*

Canada's largest independent real estate brokerage** just hit a huge milestone by achieving the number one spot in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) for all of 2013.

What is Right at Home's story?

Founded in 2004, the company now has over 2,500 agents and brokers in the GTA, with 6 offices in Toronto, Richmond Hill, Mississauga, Durham, Oakville and Burlington.

The company was founded by Arthur Bartram, Ron Peddicord and Howard Drukarsh.  After Arthur Bartram's retirement in 2011, Don Kottick joined the company as President and Broker of Record.

In just nine years, the company has gone from startup to number one in the Greater Toronto Area - a feat that would be enviable in any business, let alone the hyper-competitive real estate field.  With so many long-established and well run brands in the industry, it would be a challenge simply to be competitive.

Previous milestones include having the highest number of sold homes in the cities of Toronto and Mississauga for 2010 and 2011.

How did we do it?

This milestone is a testament to the entire organization's commitment to the highest levels of service, professionalism and a sincere desire to attract and continuously increase the education of its people.

What's Next?

Expect bigger and better things as time passes.  With more people joining the company, and numbers continuing to grow, we may see further geographic expansion in coming years.
