Tamir Poleg has redefined modern real estate leadership by transforming a tech-forward brokerage into a full-scale financial and AI powerhouse. Under his visionary guidance, Real has achieved staggering momentum, rising to become one of the five largest brokerages in the United States by volume. By November 2025, the company’s agent count exceeded 31,000—a significant increase from the 24,140 agents recorded at the end of the previous year. This rapid expansion was matched by a robust financial performance, with third quarter revenue surging 53% year-over-year to $568.5 million.
In 2025, Poleg pushed Real further into the fintech space with the expansion of Real Wallet, including the launch of Real Wallet Capital—an industry-first embedded lending solution that provides agents with fast access to working capital based on their production history. He also spearheaded the launch of HeyLeo, a voice-first, AI-powered conversational search tool that keeps agents at the center of the consumer discovery journey.
“Knowing that our platform performs even in tough markets and gives us the opportunity to elevate the home-buying journey is what motivates me every day,” shares Poleg, whose commitment to a seamless end-to-end ecosystem continues to set a new global benchmark for the industry.
