Carla Browne started her work life journey in the Real Estate industry in 1993 with CENTURY 21 Dome and no word of a lie has done every job role within the company! This has been a huge advantage as she is a resource for not only her own brokerage but others around the country within the CENTURY 21 system. Always having the need to enhance her professional life she was always wanting to learn more about the industry so she obtained her Real Estate license and then her Broker’s license in the Province of Saskatchewan.
In 2005, the CENTURY 21 offices in 4 cities were purchased by Conexus Credit Union. Carla became the Provincial Broker for all 6 offices within Regina, Saskatoon, Moose Jaw, and Prince Albert. Then in 2011 Conexus Credit Union had a change in direction and no longer wanted to be in the Real Estate Industry. Carla along with one of her soon-to-be partners assisted with the selling of the brokerages to 4 separate ownership groups within the 4 cities. She along with 4 others invested in the Regina brokerage. She closely worked and assisted the new ownership in Saskatoon with their transition and continued for many years after to work on projects alongside of them to strengthen the CENTURY 21 brand in both cities.
Then in 2013 to add another challenge to her plate she ventured into a Property Management Franchise and currently brokers the office of Real Property Management Professionals in Saskatoon.
In 2016, she worked on transitioning from a day-to-day role within the CENTURY 21 office to her primary role building the Real Property Management Professionals office in Saskatoon. She has loved the experience of building the property management office and continues to grow her portfolio of managed properties and team. In 2019 she started working with the RPM Central offices as Managing Broker. Later that year she became the Operations Manager of Real Property Management Limited Partnership. This has allowed her to see numerous growth opportunities for the offices and the RPM Brand across Canada. In October 2021 Carla was promoted to President of Real Property Management Canada and leads the national brand across Canada.
Her passion for the professionalism of the Real Estate and Property Management Industry along with seeing others alongside her excel are her main drivers. The support of her family and the unmatched team of professionals she works within her office is the “secret” to her
company’s success. Teamwork, support, taking risks, always being ethical, and most importantly caring about others are the qualities she feels are important as a leader. She is dedicated to the industry and the community she lives and works in. She is a past board member with the Saskatchewan Landlord Association and holds the Past Chair with the Board of Directors of the Saskatoon Chamber of Commerce.
In 2016 she was recognized as shaping the future of Real Estate as one of Canada’s Top 100 Elite Women in Real Estate. In the fall of 2016, she was honored to receive the inaugural CENTURY 21 Canada Brand Leadership Award in recognition of outstanding Leadership and Brand Loyalty. Her most recent honor was being awarded Franchisee of the Year with RPM in 2018.
