Chicago-based Leading Real Estate Companies of the World announced that to date this year, 37 firms have joined the global real estate network. “We continue to grow extensively but selectively, declining nearly 80 percent of the companies that inquire about affiliation because they do not meet our requirements for market position, brand reputation, service excellence and more,” said LeadingRE President/CEO Pam O’Connor in a statement. “By offering a truly compelling business model, we attract top companies that want to combine their local success with a global reach.”
