Ryan Schneider, CEO of Anywhere Real Estate, has discussed the company's strategy for navigating a challenging housing market characterized by low unit sales and high interest rates. He stated that the company is focusing on growth through technology investment, including AI, and by expanding its high-margin franchise and luxury segments. Schneider noted that Anywhere has a 13% market share across its brands and described the private listing market as a "scale game" where the company can leverage its size. He also said the company is prepared for a potential industry shift toward private listings, though he expressed a preference for broad listing availability for consumers. Schneider has commented on the broader housing market, describing it as being at a "historically low point" but expressing a bullish medium-term outlook due to demographic demand. He stated that the company is being "proactive" about industry changes, including early settlement of litigation, and is focusing on M&A as a growth lever for 2025. On policy, Schneider said he does not see a significant change coming from Washington and that the company is against proposed "millionaire" or mansion-style taxes. He also said Anywhere is the only real estate brokerage with a D.C. lobbying operation and that the company advocates for pro-housing policies.
