Our story

Founded by brokers. Built for your growth.

Empower Transactions started because we lived the back-office chaos ourselves—the missed deadlines, the compliance risk, the hours lost to admin instead of clients. We built the operations partner we wished we’d had, and today we run it for brokerages and teams nationwide.

What we believe
The principles behind every file
Time is the product
We give agents their hours back.
Compliance is non-negotiable
Every file, audit-ready.
Teams, not single points of failure
Continuity on every deal.
Leadership

We ran the brokerage before we built the fix.

Empower Transactions wasn’t designed in a conference room. Keith and Jennifer ran operations inside a real brokerage — the missed deadlines, the compliance exposure, the admin that ate selling time. They built the operations partner they wished they’d had.

Keith created Empower Transactions out of necessity, not theory. Leading operations at HomeCity Real Estate, he helped scale the company to hundreds of monthly closings — and watched talented agents drown in admin while brokers lost days to compliance. After HomeCity sold to Better Homes & Gardens and he co-built Opcity (later acquired by Realtor.com), he set out to give brokerages the operational systems they should have had all along.

Jennifer co-founded Empower Transactions to bring sanity back to real estate transactions. After years running day-to-day operations at HomeCity Real Estate, she saw how disorganized systems and thin admin support slowed agents down and created compliance headaches for brokers. Her work spans team development, transaction systems, and real estate tech implementation — the infrastructure that lets a brokerage grow without breaking.
