Summary · why it matters

Compass merged with Paragon Realtors this week, folding the Dallas-based independent boutique brokerage into the real estate conglomerate. Paragon, founded 26 years ago by Mike Miller, has closed over $260 million in real estate volume over the past year, and its 85 agents will join Compass, with 35 agents in Sherman, Texas, operating as the Paragon Group under Compass as broker of record and 40-45 agents working out of Compass's East Dallas office. The deal follows Compass's acquisitions of at least two other Dallas-headquartered independent brokerages in the past year, Rogers Healy and Associates and Bray Real Estate Group, which together with Paragon have brought 400 new agents under its umbrella in the metroplex. Compass opened in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex in 2018 and now has about 600 real estate teams and over 1,650 agents there, according to Brian Pacholski, senior managing director of Compass DFW. Miller called the acquisition hybrid, since the Sherman office will still be operated by Paragon with the same staff and leadership, now powered by Compass, and said he chose Compass over Corcoran after beginning his search for partnership options in February.
