LAGUNA NIGUEL, Calif., March 4, 2025 -- For the third year in a row, Mike Clear, Realty ONE Group's Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Chief Operating Officer (COO), has been named a HousingWire Finance Leader because of his exceptional leadership in the industry, successfully navigating the challenging real estate market and fueling the popular brand's incredible growth around the world.
Clear is among only 40 top finance executives in housing to make HousingWire's prestigious 2025 list.
"I'm grateful to be at a place in my career where I can help steer a company to success which translates to the success of our Broker/Owners, our real estate professionals and so many others," said Clear, whose career spans from finance and operations roles to sales and marketing.
Clear was quoted in a recent HousingWire article about the growth expected for Realty ONE Group in 2025. "We're a very attractive place for (real estate professionals) to join right now. In this market, if there is a downward commission pressure for people, I think a flat-fee model makes a lot of sense."
Clear joined Realty ONE Group in 2017 with more than three decades in the industry, more recently as Vice President of Operations for American Home Shield but also in multiple roles at HSA Home Warranty including President, COO, Chief Information Officer and Chief Sales & Marketing Officer. Clear was also named a 'Luminary' on RISMedia's 2025 Newsmaker list which features some of real estate's most impactful leaders.
Clear is one of the finance leaders who are "...helping their organizations navigate an evolving market landscape and driv(ing) sustainable growth."
Realty ONE Group was recently named the No. 1 real estate brand for the fourth year in a row on Entrepreneur's highly-competitive 2025 Franchise 500® list, just as the global franchisor celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.
The UNBrokerage as it is known in the industry has more than 20,000 real estate professionals in more than 450 offices in 49 states, Washington D.C., and 25 more countries, recently expanding into Bonaire and Curacao.
