Prudential Americana Group, REALTORS® is an independently owned and operated member of Prudential Real Estate Affiliates and is the 8th largest in the company's national network of 677 franchises.
 
Prudential Americana Group is the largest real estate company in Las Vegas with approximately 1,200 sales executives with 6,457 home closings and $2.2 billion in sales. The company was founded in 1979 and has sold more than $60 billion in Las Vegas real estate since that time.
 
2008 was an exciting year for Prudential Americana Group. The company moved its headquarters into a new building in Southeast Las Vegas. It now employs approximately 56 full-time staff members that support sales executives and facilitate thousands of contracts per year for Prudential Americana Group and its clients.
 
2008 was also a growth year in closed transactions for the company. Despite the downturn in the local real estate market, it continued to add talented sales executives and pursue merger opportunities with other offices and franchises. Prudential also announced a new strategic partnership with Shelter Mortgage in 2008. One of the nation's most trusted mortgage companies, Shelter provides Prudential customers with the best lending options available.
 
2009 has proven to be one of Prudential Americana Group's best yet. The company started its 30th anniversary year by launching its new website, www.americanagroup.com, making its online presence the largest and most comprehensive in Nevada. This coincided with a new Green campaign in which the company launched a paperless transaction system, saving thousands of pages of paper in the first year alone.
 
Also in 2009, Prudential Americana Group merged with and acquired multiple high-volume sales teams and offices including the McGarey Group, The Mullen Group and Windermere Summerlin. In constant pursuit of bringing new real estate executives to the market, it has also launched Americana University, an intensive pre-licensing school that provides 80 hours of classroom time to help new realtors prepare for the state licensing exams.
