CENTURY 21 Circle Our Journey to Excellence

2012-Expands to 15 Offices in the Chicagoland area

2012: Expanding to Serve You Better

CENTURY 21 Circle, originally operating under the CENTURY 21 Affiliated brand, began its journey to becoming a leading real estate provider in the Chicagoland area. Through hard work, innovation, and the collaborative efforts of the Leadership Team, we expanded to 15 offices across the region, laying the foundation for future growth and success.

2013-2015: A World Leader in Real Estate

CENTURY 21 Affiliated was named #1 in the World for units sold, cementing its position as a top-performing real estate brand. With the continued vision of the Leadership Team, the company expanded its footprint into Northern Indiana, while continuing to grow in the Chicagoland market.

2017: A Record-Breaking Milestone

For the first time in CENTURY 21 history, CENTURY 21 Affiliated reached the remarkable achievement of being #1 in both AGC (Adjusted Gross Commission) and units sold for two consecutive years. This historic milestone, combined with a fourth consecutive year of #1 for units sold, set the stage for continued success. The company also expanded into Florida with new offices along both the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts. Additionally, the acquisition of Affinity Title Services, a 20-year-old Chicago-based title company, further solidified the company’s commitment to offering full-service support to its agents.

2018: Diversifying Our Services

The Leadership Team launched a new venture, Skylight Insurance, a property and casualty insurance company that would offer additional services to real estate clients and agents.

During this time, Affinity Title Services merged with Acuity Title, expanding the company’s title services across its footprint and ensuring that clients received seamless support throughout their real estate journey.

2022: Growing Stronger

The company continued to grow, expanding through partnerships and the addition of new offices in Illinois, Indiana, and Florida. By the end of 2022, CENTURY 21 Circle had reached 50 real estate offices and 20 Acuity Title offices.
