Collin County Area Realtors has merged with the MetroTex Association of Realtors to become a nearly 40,000-member association specializing in the North Texas real estate industry.

The merger was approved by member votes between both associations in July, according to a news release. It was first endorsed by both associations’ board of directors before it was put to membership for a vote.

“We’re not just merging boards; we’re amplifying our voice,” MetroTex President Johnny Mowad said in a statement. “Together, MetroTex and CCAR will form one of the strongest real estate networks in the country.”

MetroTex CEO Justin Landon will lead the merged association, according to the news release. The merger is expected to lead to strengthened legislative influence, expanded professional development and more.

“We’re approaching this transition with focus and care to ensure a smooth experience for every member,” Landon said in a statement. “We are committed to being a national leader among realtor associations. Our [Dallas-Fort Worth] real estate professionals deserve no less.”


The merged association will be named the MetroTex Association of Realtors. Metrotex is headquartered in Irving. CCAR’s offices in Plano, Frisco and Dallas will remain open. A full list of MetroTex's locations and services can be accessed online through its website.
