Call It Closed International Realty makes Inc. 5000 list of fastest growing private companies

NAPLES, Fla. - Aug. 22, 2024 - PRLog -- An international, cloud-based real estate brokerage with Southwest Florida origins has been named to the Inc. 5000 list of the country's fastest growing private companies.

Call It Closed International Realty, founded in 2019 by Chad and Aprile Osborne, ranked 45^th in real estate and No. 2045 nationally on the list Inc. 5000 (https://www.inc.com/profile/call-it-closed-international-realty) which Inc. calls "America's entrepreneurial benchmark."

Among Florida companies on the list, Call It Closed was ranked No. 233 – and among the Top 10 in Naples and Marco Island.

Companies are ranked based on their percentage revenue growth over a three-year period. In the case of Call It Closed, the company increased its revenues by 350% from 2020 to 2023 while more than doubling its number of employees. The company now has hundreds of agents operating in 18 states and abroad.

"Our company was built on the entrepreneurial model of helping real estate agents gain a greater opportunity at more success, so we consider this ranking a tremendous honor," said co-founder Chad Osborne. "It's also a reflection of how much our customers value our innovative approach and network of local experts in markets across the country and overseas."

Among the iconic brands to appear on the Inc. 5000 list: Microsoft, Patagonia, Oracle, Grubhub, Clif Bar, Intuit and Zappos.

The Inc. 5000 designation is only the latest accolade for Call It Closed. In March, the company was named one of the Nation's Best Brokerages by Real Trends Verified, ranking No.135 nationwide among independent brokerages based on its sales volume for single-family, residential real estate transactions.

In June, co-founder and Chief Vision Officer Aprile Osborne was named one of the country's top real estate agents on the 2024 RealTrends Verified + Tom Ferry The Thousand rankings. In the category of small teams, her three-person squad ranked just outside the top 150 in Florida, generating nearly $50 million in sales for 2023 alone.

The couple founded the brokerage in 2019 as an alternative to an outdated business model that put a disproportionate share of control (and commissions) in the hands of large brokerages by instead empowering individual agents.

Rather than pay hefty franchise fees, or split commissions like some large firms that leave agents with just 70 cents on the dollar, Call It Closed's entrepreneurial model gives agents a greater opportunity at success. When agents have more control of their cash flow, more resources are available to market their property, with greater autonomy, benefiting buyers and sellers alike.
