COMPASS expands across Gulf Coast with acquisition of New Orleans’ Latter & Blum 

by John Yellig

COMPASS has expanded into New Orleans and across the greater Gulf South with the strategic acquisition of Latter & Blum. 

The bolt-on expands COMPASS’ Gulf reach from Texas to Florida and brings with it a brokerage that closed $3.6 billion in transactions last year. 

Latter & Blum was founded in 1916 and is currently led by Chairman Robert Merrick and CEO Lacey Merrick Conway, who will continue to manage the firm’s local operations.  

“We are excited to welcome the No. 1 brokerage in the Gulf South to COMPASS,” COMPASS Founder and CEO Robert Reffkin said in a press release. “We will now have a firm presence across the Gulf Coast, from Texas to Florida, providing more opportunities for our agents to transact and better serve their clients.”  

“At Latter & Blum, we take pride in creating life-changing opportunities and meaningful careers for agents,” said Merrick Conway. “This partnership enhances our commitment, providing our agents and the local community access to an expansive referral network and cutting-edge tools driving the industry forward while maintaining our local culture and expertise.”
