We look forward to leveraging our increased scale to create more value for our agents and partners in the marketplace," said Scott McCall, CEO of TRG. "Our partnership with Lennar speaks volumes to who we are as a company and the value we deliver. We have always been interested in expanding our relationships within the homebuilding community and Lennar becoming a part owner of TRG is an exciting milestone in fulfilling that goal."

TRG's customer-first mentality, commitment to high quality, and genuine approach to partnerships are attributes we both value. Our dual commitment to these shared values will allow us to service our customers more effectively than ever. I'm excited about our shared future," saidEmilio Fernandez, President of DTI.
