A first-year brokerage bill helped shape Zach Griest’s approach to real estate. His response became a company, a three-word slogan, and eventually a trophy that traveled by wagon.

He started simpliHŌM with $30,000 and four agents. As the brokerage expanded, Sean Miku found that making life easier for other people required a different kind of ambition.
He began with construction work, bought apartments in Houston, and built Real around the people who sell homes. Now, after the RE/MAX combination, Tamir Poleg has a much larger test of the same idea.
