Anywhere Acquired by Compass | Real Estate Services M&A Deal

Compass has completed the acquisition of Anywhere, a commercial brokerage business in New York, for $1.6 billion. Compass acquires Anywhere to expand real estate services capabilities across brokerage operations, including commercial brokerage services in NY. Anywhere provides brokerage services and market presence that support Compass acquisitions and broader real estate services M&A strategy. The merger acquisition closed in January 2026 after clearing the HSR waiting period, following a strategic acquisition announced in September 2025. Separately, the New York Attorney General requested information from brokerages as part of an inquiry tied to the Anywhere acquisition, reflecting regulatory scrutiny of NY acquisitions and market share concerns.
