LPT Realty - The Fastest Growing Real Estate Brokerage Firm in the U.S. - Is Now in All 50 States and Canada
LAKE MARY, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Robert Palmer, founder and CEO of LPT Realty and RP Funding, announced that his cloud-based real estate brokerage firm is now in all 50 states, Washington, D.C. and three provinces of Canada (British Columbia, Ontario and Saskatchewan) – all in just three years. This rapid, record growth makes LPT Realty the fastest-growing, largest, single-entity brokerage by agent count in history with over 15,000 agents. It is also the first privately-held brokerage to achieve full U.S. market coverage, setting a new industry benchmark and laying the groundwork for unstoppable global growth.
RealTrends Verified, which analyzes brokerage, team, and agent performance data and highlights the top 1.5% of real estate pros, released its 2024 rankings and has just placed LPT Realty at #10 by transaction, up from #28 last year. According to Caroline Scanlon, Director, RealTrends Verified, 'This level of growth is rare. . .more than doubling both transaction sides and volume year over year. This represents one of the largest year-over-year gains we've seen — a clear signal of serious momentum and market share gains.'
The Real Estate Almanac, published annually by T3 Sixty, trusted advisor to the residential real estate brokerage industry, has just named LPT Realty #10 nationally in transactions (36,369) with year-over-year Transaction Sides Change of 175.2%, and sales volume of $13,860 million. LPT Realty was also named the Inman 2024 Most Innovative Brokerage as it continues to innovate the real estate brokerage industry.
Robert Palmer explains, 'Most brokerage models serve one agent avatar, but what if one brokerage could serve all of them? That's what we built. We call it a 'brokerage for life.' Wherever an agent is in their life cycle, we have a model for them. Agents need freedom, flexibility and support. They need to define success on their own terms. That's why we've built a brokerage model with no walls — physically or philosophically.'
Palmer's leadership and industry foresight helped him move up 103 spots to No. 68 on the Swanepoel Power 200, an annual ranking of the most influential leaders in residential real estate published by T3 Sixty for 2025. Additionally, Inman Power Players just named Palmer as one of the most innovative and influential executives in the real estate industry.
LPT Realty's agent-centric model offers flexible compensation, including the option to choose one's own commission plan and revenue-sharing opportunities. They provide 'unfair advantages' to agents with first-of-its-kind technology, proprietary marketing tools, and one of the industry's most comprehensive training programs.
Palmer says: 'We're here to build the best brokerage platform agents have ever seen. I'm so proud of what our brokers have accomplished, and we are just getting started!'
Over the past year, LPT Realty has been scaling for growth and positioning for a future IPO. As the founder of LPT Realty, Palmer has built a portfolio of industry-leading companies focused on innovation, agent success and consumer empowerment.
'From the outset, LPT Realty's mission has been to redefine what a real estate brokerage can achieve. Growing to 15,000 agents within the first three years demonstrates the strength of this vision. Now, with operations in all 50 states and Canada, we are thrilled to extend the opportunities that have energized our agents to an even broader audience,' stated Palmer.

Bundesliga Side Pushing to Sign £25million Manchester City Star
Bayer Leverkusen Eyeing Manchester City Star in Potential Summer Swoop Bayer Leverkusen are reportedly preparing an offer for Manchester City's highly-rated youngster James McAtee, according to Sky Sports News. As per reporting from Amar Mehta and Lyall Thomas, Leverkusen's interest in McAtee is concrete, though no formal bid could be tabled before the close of the most recent transfer window. Advertisement The 22-year-old midfielder, currently captaining the England Under-21 side during their matches in Slovakia, has become a notable figure in Manchester City's youth structure. His performances for both club and country have not gone unnoticed, and Leverkusen's interest reflects a broader trend of top European sides targeting Premier League academy graduates. A move, however, is not imminent. It cannot progress until McAtee's international duties and the upcoming Club World Cup have concluded. As the report states, 'An offer could not be made in the first window, which closed on Tuesday.' This leaves City with ample time to evaluate their options and the true valuation of one of their promising assets. Photo: IMAGO City Set Steep Price Tag Amid Growing Interest City have reportedly placed a valuation of 'in excess of £25m plus add-ons' on McAtee, though some sources believe that figure could rise even higher. In context, this puts him in similar territory to fellow City academy graduate Cole Palmer, who was sold to Chelsea for £40m. Advertisement While Palmer's rise and value spike are significant, McAtee offers a slightly different profile. He is more central in nature, combining creativity with directness and composure in possession. The question many fans and analysts are now asking is whether Manchester City will allow another homegrown talent to depart before he's had a proper chance in the first team. This isn't the first time Leverkusen have tapped into the Premier League pipeline, and their ability to offer meaningful minutes and exposure in a top European league has become an attractive proposition for emerging English talent. McAtee Keen on Bundesliga Adventure The key revelation from Sky Sports is that McAtee is 'understood to be keen to join Leverkusen if the clubs can come to an agreement.' That level of player interest could accelerate talks once formal negotiations begin. In the modern transfer market, player intention carries significant weight, and with McAtee evidently open to the move, Manchester City must weigh the short-term benefits of a sizeable fee against the long-term regret of losing another gem. Advertisement Leverkusen's appeal is multi-faceted. With Champions League football now a regular prospect at the BayArena, the stage could be set for him to flourish. What City's Transfer Strategy Says About McAtee's Future There's no doubt Manchester City have a blueprint for academy development, but selling talents like Palmer and potentially McAtee raises questions about their long-term integration plans. Are these players being nurtured for first-team action, or groomed for profit? While McAtee has featured for City at senior level, consistent minutes have proven elusive. Loan spells have offered glimpses of his potential, but for a player of his quality, the next step must be decisive. Advertisement If Leverkusen are willing to meet City's valuation, this could be one of the most notable outbound transfers of the summer. With the Premier League becoming increasingly ruthless at the top end, Manchester City may regret letting another creative force leave without fully tapping into his capabilities. Our View – EPL Index Analysis From the perspective of a Manchester City supporter, this story is layered with excitement, frustration and uncertainty. James McAtee has been widely regarded as one of the brightest prospects to emerge from the club's academy in recent years. Watching players like Cole Palmer succeed elsewhere begs the question: are we giving these youngsters enough opportunity? McAtee is the kind of player City could need in transition games, in tighter cup fixtures or when rotation becomes critical during the business end of the season. He's technically sound, reads the game intelligently and clearly has the maturity to lead, as shown by his captaincy role with England's U21s. Advertisement There's something bittersweet in potentially losing him to Leverkusen. Yes, £25m or more is good business, but is that truly reflective of what he could become under Guardiola or even as part of a deeper squad reshuffle post-Kevin De Bruyne? In the current market, a fully integrated McAtee could be worth double in a couple of seasons. Xabi Alonso's style and tactical approach would suit McAtee perfectly, and one can't help but feel he'd thrive in Germany. However, from a City standpoint, it's tough to reconcile allowing another homegrown star to flourish abroad while the club continues to spend heavily on ready-made midfielders. Selling McAtee might make financial sense today, but could prove a footballing misstep tomorrow.

Popular Eastern fried chicken chain fights bankruptcy to stay open
A beloved fried chicken chain based on the East Coast is struggling to keep its doors open. Sticky's, formerly known as Sticky's Chicken Joint, launched in 2012 and became famous in New York and New Jersey for its farm-raised, antibiotic-free chicken with a variety of sauces such as 'Thai Sweet Chili' and 'Caribbean Sweet Heat.' Operating 12 locations across New York and New Jersey, the restaurant chain filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in April 2024 in a bid to cut its debts. The filing for bankruptcy was largely due to the severe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, as Sticky's heavily relied on New York City foot traffic and has since had a hard time bouncing back, Mens Journal wrote. As a potential resolution, Sticky's received a $2 million cash offer from Harker Palmer Investors. The deal would involve the investors purchasing the chain, taking responsibility for some of its debts and preventing Sticky's from moving Chapter 11 bankruptcy into Chapter 7 liquidation, Food Republic wrote. However, the restaurant is still actively seeking approval for a new Chapter 11 bankruptcy plan. The proposed sale received pushback from the Justice Department's bankruptcy watchdog, the U.S. Trustee, claiming the deal would give Palmer 'too much legal protection if the company were sued in the future,' according to the Daily Mail. Sticky's warned last week that it would be forced into Chapter 7 liquidation, causing the shutdown of all stores and leaving creditors empty-handed if the sale is not approved.
