Our Story
How a unique real estate brokerage reached the top
Over the two decades since our founding as a scrappy upstart, we've grown to be an industry leader.
Our History
Founded in disruption
Our story starts the early 2000’s, when our founders noted a business model gaining prominence in the US wherein agents kept all their commissions. They wondered how the idea might play in Canada, where brokerages had run on anemic split-commission models for decades. The founding branch of Right at Home Realty opened in 2004.
We immediately attracted attention
Not all of it positive. We were labeled a “discount brokerage” and even less flattering terms. Except our model worked, quickly proving itself superior. That agent-first ethos has enabled RAHR to expand to 10 Ontario branches, where 6,000+ real estate professionals practice their craft their way, fully supported in all their needs – and still taking home that sweet 100% on every single close.

Entrepreneurs monetizing their ambition
The 100% model encourages agents to reinvest their commissions back into their real estate business. It facilitates creative and flexible ways to market themselves, generate leads, and enable their clients’ transactions to run smoothly and free of stressful surprises. Best of all, you never toil alone. Each location is staffed with experienced pros, ready to make your life easier – and always on your terms.
Our Culture
It’s not hard to do the math. The earnings difference between RAHR agents and those of our competitors – and not just the traditional commission split brokerages – is significant. Simply stated, our way nets out as more money in your pocket. And as a more financially empowered agent, you’re free to choose the in-house support services that suit your business approach.
Leadership
RAHR believes in leading with purpose; our executive team strives continually to exemplify this precept and works diligently to create value for Right at Home members and their clients.
