Alan Fruitman

Since 1993, Alan has helped thousands of clients buy, sell, and lease billions of dollars in real estate. He is a nationally recognized expert in investment real estate and 1031 exchanges, and the author of The NNN Triple Net Property Book. Alan has matched clients with trusted real estate brokers nationwide, and his proven track record makes him uniquely qualified to assist with the sale of your investment property. 

Alan has been the trusted real estate broker for everyone ranging from first-time investors to billion-dollar property owners, attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, institutional fund managers, and family offices. He understands that while every client is unique, their goals are strikingly similar: to be heard and understood, to receive clear guidance, and to sell their property for the highest price with the smoothest process. Above all, Alan believes in giving clients realistic advice - not inflated projections or promises that can’t be delivered.

Rhett Fruitman

Drawing on his experience at Citi, CBRE and 1031tax.com, Rhett applies investment-grade due diligence to ensure every broker introduction meets our exact standards. Rhett oversees our client and broker relationships with the kind of attention you'd expect from your family's trusted advisor - professional, thorough, and always looking out for your best interests.

Real Estate Broker Match makes finding the right real estate broker simple.

Attorneys are experts in law.  CPAs and accountants are experts in tax.  Financial Advisors are experts in investments.  Real Estate Broker Match is an expert in connecting property owners with expert real estate brokers.

Step 1

Call or contact REBM to sell investment or personal property.

Step 2

REBM will learn about your goals, expectations and property.

Step 3

REBM will match you with a real estate broker whose expertise, focus, and proven track record align perfectly with your goals and expectations.

Finding the right broker on Google is luck.
Finding the right broker through REBM is strategy.

When you work with a REBM broker – someone who understands your property and goals, brings unmatched expertise, anticipates your needs, and makes the entire process easier – you’ll be glad you didn’t leave it to luck.

Why Real Estate Broker Match

Alan and Rhett built Real Estate Broker Match because their clients asked for this nationwide service.  Knowing the “right” broker is crucial to a successful sale.  Too often, people make the mistake of conveniently choosing a friend, a neighbor, or whoever shows up in an advertisement or Google search.

Choosing The Right Expert

Choosing the right broker is just as important as selecting your attorney, tax or financial advisor.‎‎ ‎ In real estate, you’re either on the inside - working with professionals who truly excel - or on the outside, hoping you guessed right.‎ ‎ REBM ensures you’re always on the inside.

Whether you're protecting clients' interests as a financial advisor or attorney, or making the biggest financial decision of your life as a property owner, you no longer have to guess.

This Is Important To Us

Real Estate Broker Match is a service we are proud to share with our family, friends, clients, and professional networks.

Every broker we recommend is personally vetted and held to the same high standards we would apply if selecting for our own family. We put our name and thirty-year track record on the line with every broker match we make.

Alan Fruitman has been instrumental in the purchase and sale of several properties for me and my family.  Alan deserves the highest regard for his guidance and patience.  Recently, Alan introduced me to a real estate broker who sold one of my properties.  The process was very smooth and successful.  I encourage you to work with Alan and Real Estate Broker Match.

Karen Smilowitz, Esq.

Alan Fruitman helped me purchase two properties in 2016.  I found Alan to have extensive experience and knowledge in this industry. To make a long story short, I stayed in communication with Alan over the past 8 years and when I decided to sell one of my properties, he referred me to a real estate broker who successfully sold the property.  Real Estate Broker Match will be a valuable resource when you are looking for the most knowledgeable professional to sell your property.

I have known Alan Fruitman since 2018.  Alan and Real Estate Broker Match introduced me to a real estate broker who I would not otherwise have known about to sell one of our properties.  The broker did an excellent job representing me.  The property sold quickly at a price that exceeded my expectations; and the broker was extremely diligent and responsive. I’m very grateful that Alan understood what was needed and knew the right person to accomplish it.

Absolutely.  You’re always welcome to speak directly with Alan or Rhett.  We are happy to answer questions, discuss your goals, and ensure you’re comfortable before moving forward.

Every submission is personally reviewed by Alan or Rhett – never an algorithm, AI, or an automated system.  We start by understanding your property, goals, and timeline, then identify brokers with demonstrated success in your specific asset type and market – often with brokers we have worked with before.  Each match is personally handled to ensure the broker’s expertise, track record, and approach align with your needs.

We only work with brokers who have proven track records.  Each broker in our network has been personally interviewed and vetted for both experience and specialization, often through years of direct collaboration with Alan.  We stake our reputation on every match and only recommend brokers we would trust with our family and friends.

We specialize in matching you with an expert broker in your asset type.  Whether it’s NNN retail, multifamily, industrial, office, or residential property, we connect you with proven brokers who know your property category inside and out.

Not always, but typically yes.  We work with top-performing local brokers in every major U.S. market.  Occasionally, a niche specialist who’s the best fit for your property type may not be local.  When that’s the case, we will explain why their expertise matters.

Yes.  Our network includes specialists in both sales and leasing across every major property type – ensuring you are matched with the right expert for your specific transaction.

Absolutely.  We regularly work with clients completing 1031 exchanges.  This has been Alan Fruitman’s core expertise for decades.

While we are not tax advisors, our extensive work with investment properties and 1031 exchanges has given us deep insight into how real estate, taxes, and inheritance intersect.  The real estate broker we match you with can collaborate closely with your CPA, attorney, or financial advisor to help shape a strategy aligned with your long-term financial and estate goals – ensuring your real estate investments support both your current objectives and your family’s future legacy.

Absolutely.  Our brokers regularly handle transactions involving complex ownership structures – LLC, S-Corp, C-Corp, Trust, Tenancy-in-Common (TIC), Delaware Statutory Trusts (DST), multi-partner, and other structures.

Complicated properties require brokers with specialized skillsets.  We will connect you with professionals experienced in marketing and selling properties with deferred maintenance, environmental issues, difficult tenants, zoning complications, and other challenges.

Our clients sometimes need to sell their property fast.  The real estate broker we match you with can guide you through a short sale, partnership disputes, estate settlements, or exchange deadlines.  They will maximize value even under compressed timelines while maintaining discretion and professionalism throughout the process.

REBM focuses exclusively on properties within the United States.  However, we have helped many international clients purchase and sell property in the U.S.

Typically within 1-3 business days.  However, complex properties or specialized markets may take a bit longer.  Every match is personally handled – not automated – as we prioritize precision and fit over speed.  That said, we move efficiently.

Yes.  Many clients come to us while already working with a broker but want to compare options before committing.  We can confidentially review your situation and connect you with a top-performing broker who can replace the broker you previously selected.

That’s perfectly fine.  Even if you’re not ready to sell immediately, we are happy to start the conversation and help you prepare.  We will stay in touch, keep you informed on market trends, and introduce you to the right broker when you are ready.

Once you choose a broker, we remain available to ensure everything moves smoothly.  You can reach out with questions at any point, and if the match isn’t the right fit, we will help you find a better one.  We are available for you from introduction through closing.

We regularly handle multiple-property sales.  Whether you’re selling several properties in one region or across multiple markets, we will connect you with the right specialist in each location – ensuring each property receives the attention and expertise it deserves.

Yes.  We never share your details with anyone except the broker we match you with.  We never sell or distribute your data beyond the initial introduction.  Confidentiality and trust are non-negotiable in everything we do.

Our information stays private and is never shared.  We can delete it upon request, or retain your contact information in case you’d like to revisit the conversation in the future.  The choice is yours.
