Our company culture speaks to who we are and the type of agent we attract.
Support. We believe a well-supported agent results in a well-served client. Which is why we are committed to offering the highest level of products, services, tools, and technology available.
Teamwork. Together our agents collaborate, learn from each other, and support each other while building their businesses.
Success means something different to everyone, but certainly for each person it is some combination of financial stability or achievement, freedom and time to enjoy friends, family and life experiences. We work closely with our agents to support them on their journey to success.
Freedom to work where and when you want, whether it is a shared office space, a home office, a coffee shop or a pool lounger.
Life. Oh, and we like to have fun, laugh, travel, spend time with friends and family, eat good food, drink great wine, and make good money! Yeah, we said it. We like making money and we bet you do to.
Our people truly are a reflection of our culture. We invite you to discover if NextHome NW Realty is a great fit for you and a place you’d be proud to say “This is my Next Home!” #WhosNext!
At NextHome NW Realty we believe in having a team approach when it comes to helping our agents grow their businesses. With over 40+ years of combined real estate and business experience, our management team works with each agent to help them excel and thrive in the real estate industry.
When Kurt Kalimanis and Dustin Slack decided to partner to create NextHome NW Realty, they each brought their own individual strengths from diverse business backgrounds to build a strong partnership and company.
As owners, we believe agents are our customers, as much as home buyers and sellers. When we make an agent successful, it makes our company successful. In order to support this process, we have hand-selected top real estate professionals to join our management team, including managing principal brokers, agent coaches, mentors and transaction coordinators. Every business decision we make is backed with the intention of helping our agents, clients and everyone who is part of the company, be more successful in business and life.

Our Technology & Marketing
National NextHome Conference
An interactive Ted Talk style conference with national speakers showing us different techniques to grow our business. Agents leave the conference with confidence and have a clear understanding of where NextHome is headed with new technology, for example the artificial intelligent assistant. Agents take these tools and business ideas to grow their real estate market share.” #WhoseNext
At NextHome NW Realty, we believe straightforward plans are always better. No one likes surprises, especially when it comes to your money.
The franchise fee is flexible and is charged at a low flat per-month charge or on a per transaction basis. You can change the way the fee is paid every six months. Why change plans you ask? One common reason is seasonal. During the slower winter season, our agents can choose the percentage option. Then when the spring market arrives, agents can switch to the flat rate option. And for our brand new agents, the percentage option allows them to build their businesses without the monthly fee until they sell their first home.
