CENTURY 21 SCHEETZ and CENTURY 21 BREEDEN REALTORS® Join Forces to Better Serve Indiana Consumers, Growing Team of Trusted Agents
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (April 22, 2025) – CENTURY 21 Scheetz, the largest CENTURY 21® company in Indiana, has officially joined forces with CENTURY 21 Breeden REALTORS®, a top performing brokerage based in Columbus. This strategic merger strengthens the CENTURY 21 brand’s presence across Central Indiana and unifies two of the region’s most respected real estate firms. Now operating under the CENTURY 21 Scheetz name, the combined organization includes 10 offices and over 420 independent agents—expanding market share and deepening its impact on homebuyers, sellers, investors, and communities throughout the Hoosier state.
Founded in 1951, CENTURY 21 Breeden REALTORS® has been a trusted name in residential real estate for generations. With nearly 75 years of deep-rooted service and community commitment, co owners Mark Pratt and Tara James saw CENTURY 21 Scheetz as the natural next chapter in the company’s legacy—one that aligns with their values and vision for continued growth.
“Not only do we benefit from economies of scale in terms of dedicated sales support, a full-service in-house marketing department, in-house mortgage and title companies, but we also gain access to a highly skilled and successful cadre of colleagues,” said Pratt. “We’re truly excited to come together and create powerful synergies as a combined company — and I know the late Jan Hexamer-Gardner would be proud to see the spirit and legacy she helped build carried forward with strength and purpose.”
“We are thrilled to join forces with CENTURY 21 Scheetz, a company that shares our deep commitment to exceptional service, innovation, and community. This merger marks an exciting new chapter, uniting two outstanding teams under the CENTURY 21 brand, adds James. Together, we are stronger, more connected, and better equipped than ever to support our agents and serve our clients.”
“CENTURY 21 Breeden REALTORS® have long set the standard for excellence in our industry. Their legacy of professionalism, goodwill, and commitment to their clients and communities has made a lasting impact across the Columbus market,” said Tracy Hutton, CEO of CENTURY 21 Scheetz. “For decades, Mark, Tara and their exceptional team have built a reputation rooted in service and integrity. I’m honored they’ve chosen to grow with us as we build on a shared commitment to excellence.”
