In his new role as Senior Vice President of Franchise Sales, Markham will lead the national sales team to support the brand’s aggressive growth goals.

Markham’s career has been defined by a track record of successfully leading national sales organizations. He most recently served as general manager of Constellation Real Estate Group, which provides market-leading software for the real estate industry, focusing on driving growth across three brands. During his tenure at the company, Markham spearheaded multiple M&As and led strategic initiatives to help support broker and agent success.

Prior to Constellation Real Estate Group, Markham held several leadership sales roles, including overseeing the real estate division of Equator, a software solutions provider. There he led strategic initiatives to improve sales conversions, increasing agent revenue by 32% within the first year.

“Jack is highly regarded in the real estate industry for his significant technology and financial expertise,” said Rich Green, EVP of worldwide sales, Realogy Franchise Group. “His growth-minded leadership paired with his passion for building successful sales teams will be a tremendous benefit to the BHGRE® brand.”

“Jack has devoted his career to driving growth for both established and start-up companies by maximizing sales performance.

No other real estate brand can offer 365 days a year relevance to 43 million brand-loyal consumers via exclusive channels and tools. I am proud to be part of the Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate team.”

The BHGRE brand recently earned a spot on the prestigious Entrepreneur magazine’s 2021 Franchise 500, a highly sought-after honor in the franchise industry, and was also named one of the fastest-growing franchises by the magazine.
