History

In 2005, Cendant split off all but its car rental interests into separate companies. Realogy was formed to group its real estate activities; shares in the new company were distributed to existing Cendant shareholders. In late 2006, it was bought for $6.65 billion, plus debt and other liabilities, by Apollo Management, a private equity group.
The company was listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 2012; 40 million shares were sold at $27 each, raising US$1.08 billion.
In 2013, the company moved its head office from Parsippany-Troy Hills, New Jersey to Madison, New Jersey. Ryan Schneider succeeded Richard A. Smith as chief executive officer in 2017.
