Empowering Agent Success with Compass

The decision to partner with Compass reflects Realty San Antonio's deep commitment to agent success. This collaboration will empower the company’s agents to thrive in an increasingly competitive market and amplify the entrepreneurial spirit of both Realty Austin and Realty San Antonio agents.

Our Story

The Realty Austin journey began in 2004 when Jonathan Boatwright and Yvette Flores combined their expertise to establish the company. Over the next 19 years, the company grew to nearly 700 agents, with operations in four offices in Austin and San Antonio. Adding Realty San Antonio operations in 2021 marked a significant expansion milestone, continuing the brokerage’s renowned presence as the #1 Independent Brokerage in Central Texas. In 2022, Gabe Richter was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer, leading the innovation roadmap and strategic direction of the brokerage.

"Our agents have consistently set records with remarkable achievements," said Gabe Richter, CEO of Realty Austin and Realty San Antonio. "Now, by aligning with Compass, they gain access to a transformative technology platform that enhances efficiency and elevated resources that empower them to secure even more luxury listings."

Preserving Culture and Embracing Innovation

The partnership with Compass strategically honors Realty Austin's history of innovation and growth. Agents will still enjoy the same offices, support staff, leadership team, and company culture. This partnership will complement these aspects with an expanded network of leading agents nationwide and cutting-edge tech. It's the best of both worlds for Realty San Antonio's people, promising a bright and transformative future for all involved.

As part of the deal, local leadership from Realty Austin and Realty San Antonio will maintain direct oversight of day-to-day operations. "We'll be here every step of the way to ensure a seamless transition that respects our unique brand and thriving culture we have built,” commented Yvette Flores, co-founder of Realty Austin and Realty San Antonio.
