What moved & why

Competitor WatchFrom Inman editorial

BHS is selling continuity and independence to agents wary of consolidation, and it's landing selectively — Jessica Cohen crossed from Elliman this quarter. Smaller net flow than the scaled players, but a credible 'independent prestige' home in Palm Beach, NYC, and the Hamptons.

Per Inman reporting: privately held Brown Harris Stevens is pitching independence and continuity, picking up selective luxury talent in the post-merger reshuffle.
