Are you worth $5,300?

Lindsey Dellasala, Co-Owner of DJ & Lindsey Real Estate

Sotheby’s. Coldwell Banker. Century 21. Better Homes. Corcoran. ERA.If you’re with an Anywhere brand, let’s talk about what just happened.

Compass is acquiring Anywhere. That headline has already made its way across the industry.

But let’s look at the math nobody’s really talking about:

💰 Anywhere sold for $1.6 billion👥 Anywhere has about 300,000 agents

Do the division, and you get $5,300 per agent.

That’s what Wall Street decided you are worth. $5,300.

Would you sell your career for $5,300?Would you sell your business for $5,300?Would you sell your future for $5,300?

Because that’s exactly what just happened.

What This Sale Really Means

Let’s be clear: companies don’t get acquired when they’re thriving. They get acquired when they’re struggling — when they can’t stand on their own. And when they sell at a discount, they’re essentially telling the world: our agents are worth about the price of a used Honda.

But your value isn’t set on Wall Street. Your value is set by your service, your reputation, and your results.

Your clients don’t care about a failing national brand. They care about you.

The Question Every Anywhere Agent Should Be Asking

Do I really want to tie my career to a brand that just sold me off for $5,300?

Or do I want to align with a brokerage that’s actually thriving, building, and growing?

At DJ & Lindsey Real Estate, we aren’t for sale. We aren’t being bailed out. We’re not packaging up our people and discounting them to the highest bidder.

We’re growing. We’re winning. And we’re proving every single day that boutique can beat big box.

2026 Is Coming Fast

The industry is shifting. The lawsuits. The consolidations. The mergers. It’s all a sign of what’s ahead. You can wait and hope Compass saves the day… or you can take control of your business and plant your flag with a company that values you for more than $5,300.

Because the truth is simple: bigger isn’t always better. Sometimes, boutique is best.
