Big Moves in Tucson: KMS Realty Merges with United Real Estate Specialists to Expand Services and Reach

Local residential brokerage matches deep expertise with the firepower of one of America's top real estate companies

TUCSON, Ariz., July 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- United Real Estate Specialists has welcomed a local real estate powerhouse into its fold: KMS Realty. A trusted brand in the community, KMS Realty is now aligned with United Real Estate, a national organization operating in 35 states with over 21,000 residential agents. United is currently the fastest-growing national real estate organization and the eighth-largest in the U.S.

Suzanne Rothman, former KMS Realty Designated Broker and now Managing Broker at United Real Estate Specialists, is a respected 23-year veteran of the real estate community. She is the Immediate Past President of the MLS of Southern Arizona (MLSSA) and a current board member. Rothman shared what drew her team to United Real Estate Specialists:

"The energy here is bar none the most superior energy I have ever felt at any brokerage. The support, encouragement and kindness — the entirety of it has been the most rewarding experience of my career. Those were the emotions I felt after walking through the door for the first time. Ten days later, I merged my office."

Louis Parrish, Designated Broker of United Real Estate Specialists and 2024 "Broker of the Year," has 30 years of experience as a practitioner and brokerage owner. He comments on the union:

"The most important thing in business is who you're in business with. Suzanne and her agents are complementary and additive to the brokerage. They are phenomenal, forward-thinking professionals with aligned values. We have a mindset of abundance and a culture of sharing, and we help each other out."

The decision to combine operations has unlocked new opportunities for both agents and clients. With over 100 agents in United's Tucson office—which also serves the Scottsdale market—clients now benefit from an expanded network, more listings, increased showing opportunities, stronger co-marketing and a broader service area. Enhanced brokerage resources are translating into better client experiences.

Rothman adds:

"KMS agents are gaining the tools and support of a national organization — without increasing their cost of doing business. They're combining their local market knowledge with serious firepower to deliver outstanding results for their clients."
