COMMON Questions

Everything You Need to Know

A strategic marketing partnership between FirstTeam® Real Estate and Brown Harris Stevens focused on cross-marketing, advertising, PR, referral opportunities, and shared market insights. Both companies remain fully independent.

No. Both FirstTeam® and Brown Harris Stevens remain fully independent companies with their own leadership, branding, culture, and operations. This is strategic collaboration — not consolidation.

You gain access to a broader network of agents, expanded listing exposure across both coasts, and expert guidance for cross-market relocations and second-home opportunities — from California to the Hamptons and everywhere in between.

Together we cover California, Arizona, Washington, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Florida, etc — connecting the most active relocation and second-home markets in the country.

Unlike franchise models that grow through acquisition, this partnership preserves the boutique expertise and culture of both brokerages. Local expertise with unparalleled national reach.
