Equity Union expands into Nevada with first market outside California

Equity Union Real Estate has expanded into Nevada, marking the independent brokerage’s first market outside California as it continues its national growth strategy.

The company recently was named the fastest-growing brokerage, by five year transaction side percentage, in the country on the 2026 RealTrends Verified GameChangers list.

The southern Nevada operation will be led by Jason Lindstrom as regional director, overseeing Southern Nevada and California’s Coachella Valley, while Melissa Dominguez-Martin will serve as managing and compliance broker for Nevada.

“Our expansion into Nevada is an incredibly exciting moment for Equity Union,” said Harma Hartouni, CEO of Equity Union Real Estate. “We’ve built this company with a commitment to empowering agents, delivering exceptional client experiences and growing intentionally. Southern Nevada is a dynamic and rapidly evolving market, and Jason Lindstrom is exactly the kind of proven leader we want representing the Equity Union brand as we continue expanding nationally.”

Lindstrom brings more than 26 years of real estate experience, including leadership roles across Utah, Colorado, California, Nevada and Virginia. A U.S. Army veteran, he has worked in brokerage growth, recruiting, coaching and operations.

“Equity Union has created something rare in this industry — a brokerage that genuinely prioritizes people, culture, innovation and agent success,” Lindstrom said. “The opportunity to lead Equity Union’s expansion into Nevada in addition to growing Coachella Valley is incredibly meaningful to me.”

Dominguez-Martin has more than 24 years of industry experience and previously specialized in REO, HUD and short-sale transactions before founding the Dominguez-Martin Group.

“Joining Equity Union represents an exciting opportunity to help build something exceptional in Nevada,” Dominguez-Martin said. “The company’s commitment to collaboration, innovation, and agent success aligns perfectly with my own philosophy.”

According to the company, the Nevada expansion will emphasize an agent-first culture, in-house marketing and technology support, legal and operational resources, coaching and mentorship and an organic growth strategy without mergers or acquisitions.

In addition to leading the Nevada expansion, Lindstrom will help oversee Equity Union’s Coachella Valley region, which includes more than 270 agents and closed more than $1.2 billion in sales volume in 2025, according to the company.
