reAlpha Tech Corp. (“reAlpha”) (Nasdaq: AIRE), a real estate technology company developing and commercializing artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies, today announced the acquisition of GTG Financial, Inc. (“GTG Financial”), a mortgage brokerage company founded by Glenn Groves, a U.S. Marine and industry leader.

The acquisition of GTG Financial marks another step in reAlpha’s strategy to further enhance its mortgage operations and provide a more seamless home financing experience within the reAlpha platform, its AI-powered real estate platform. By incorporating GTG Financial’s experience in the real estate industry and its added workforce of loan officers, reAlpha anticipates that it will be able to bolster its overall operational capacity, expand its loan processing capabilities and offer mortgage lending and refinancing services to homebuyers more efficiently.

“We are excited to welcome GTG Financial to the reAlpha group,” said Piyush Phadke, Chief Financial Officer of reAlpha. “This acquisition will strengthen our mortgage operations, allowing us to scale and more efficiently provide lending services through our AI-powered homebuying platform. By acquiring GTG Financial, we are continuing to advance our vision of a fully streamlined, technology-driven real estate experience.”

GTG Financial will retain its brand identity under the leadership of its founder, Glenn Groves, while leveraging reAlpha’s resources and generative AI platform, which is expected to enhance loan processing efficiency and support a more seamless home financing experience.

Glenn Groves, Chief Executive Officer of GTG Financial, added: “I believe that reAlpha’s AI-driven platform is redefining real estate by simplifying and eliminating traditional barriers in the homebuying process. We’re proud to be part of this transformation and committed to driving its long-term success. GTG Financial will be officially powered by Be My Neighbor, one of reAlpha’s subsidiaries, strengthening our mortgage services and operational efficiency.”

Christopher Griffith, Chief Executive Officer of Be My Neighbor, and a fellow U.S. Marine, echoed the sentiment: “Real success in M&A comes from aligned leadership. I believe that, as Marines, Glenn and I share the same values of discipline, integrity and execution, making this partnership a natural fit.”
