Over 18 years, Realogy Chairman, CEO and President Richard Smith helped build the world’s largest franchise real estate enterprise, which includes brands like Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate, Century 21, Coldwell Banker and Coldwell Banker Commercial, ERA and Sotheby’s International Realty. Realogy is also the home of the nation’s biggest residential real estate brokerage, NRT LLC.

In 2012, Realogy completed one of the largest initial public offerings of the year, and in 2014 it acquired ZipRealty Inc. to leverage its technology platform across Realogy’s franchise brands and company-owned brokerage operations.

At Real Estate Connect New York City, Smith joined Brad Inman for a conversation about how Realogy will tackle challenges facing the industry.
