Industry-Leading JMG Joins Keller Williams

JMG, a teamerage-style brokerage, generated $5.9 billion across 12,300+ transactions in 2025

Keller Williams announces its agreement to acquire the Jason Mitchell Group (JMG), a top U.S.-ranked, teamerage-style, independent brokerage and one of real estate’s most sophisticated referral and lead conversion platforms.

“At KW, our job is simple: give entrepreneurs the models, systems, and platform they need to thrive,” said Chris Czarnecki, CEO and president of KW. 

“Simply put, JMG is the number one teamerage in the US; they represent exactly the kind of entrepreneurial success KW was built to support,” said Czarnecki. “Jason has created one of the industry’s most effective platforms for connecting consumers with great agents, and we’re proud they chose KW for their next chapter of growth.”

JMG is headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, and operates in 37 states with more than 1,200 affiliated agents. According to RealTrends Verified, the brokerage generated nearly $5.9 billion in sales volume across more than 12,300 transaction sides in 2025.

The acquisition brings to KW a proven, highly scalable business that processes consumer leads through relationships with major mortgage lenders and other real estate platforms, including Rocket Mortgage, Mr. Cooper, Redfin, Zillow, New American Funding, and Veterans United.

“We’ve spent years building a network designed to connect motivated buyers and sellers with great agents and deliver an exceptional experience for both,” said Mitchell. 

“I’ve admired KW since starting my real estate career; when it came time to select a partner for the next phase of growth, my choice was clear,” said Mitchell. “KW offers the culture, people and opportunity to be part of the most connected real estate platform in the world.”

Mitchell will continue to lead the business as president of the JMG Division and serve on KW’s executive team. Jake Kraft, chief revenue officer at JMG, and Ken Friedlander, vice president of operations at JMG, will also join KW as part of the acquisition.

“This transaction represents a win-win for all parties involved; Jason has built an incredible business and has proven that phenomenal client services can be delivered at scale,” said Czarnecki. “Together, we are creating an engine for further growth by providing a worldwide platform for JMG to continue to expand.”

The closing is subject to certain conditions and is anticipated to take place in Q3 2026.
