Key Takeaways from UNITE 2026: Resilience, Focus, and Going All In
UNITE 2026 was more than a celebration, it was a powerful reminder of what sets Metro Brokers agents apart and what it takes to succeed in today’s market.
As President and CEO, Kevin Levent, reflected on the past year, it was clear that while 2025 brought its share of challenges, including low turnover, high interest rates, affordability concerns, and economic uncertainty, it also revealed the true strength of our network. Looking out at a room filled with driven professionals, one thing stood out: resilience, focus, perseverance, and tenacity continue to define who we are. These qualities are what fuel success, regardless of market conditions. Reinforcing that mindset are the entrepreneurial principles we live by every day: dream big, move fast, learn from reality, collaborate, and always look to the future.
That future-focused approach remains at the core of everything we do. Metro Brokers is committed to creating opportunities for our agents by continuing to invest in tools, technology, and programs designed to help grow your business. From our enhanced website and marketing resources to platforms like RealScout and Canva, we are equipping agents with everything they need to stay competitive and efficient. Programs like Guaranteed Move are already making a measurable impact, generating business that may not have otherwise existed. Combined with the momentum from the Anywhere and Compass merger, we are positioned to continue evolving, innovating, and leading in an ever-changing industry.
Ginger Wilcox’s Call to Go “All In”
A highlight of the celebration was the inspiring message from Ginger Wilcox, President of Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate, who challenged attendees to go “All In” on the one commitment that matters most this year. She reminded the audience that while we rarely break promises to others, the commitments we make to ourselves are often the first to be compromised.
