The Intero Franchise network is comprised of 55 affiliates located in Alabama, California, Nevada, Tennessee and Texas. The company is headquartered in California’s Silicon Valley.
A respected real estate veteran, Jackson’s career has seen her as a top producer, mentor and cherished teammate wherever she has practiced real estate. Most recently, Cathy was with Compass and prior to that, she was with Sereno Group.

“Cathy is a career real estate professional, with a deep understanding of the business,” said Brian Crane, Chief Executive Officer of Intero. “We are excited to have Cathy and her team join us. Her abundant energy and infectious enthusiasm are what sets her apart as a REALTOR® and leader. As one of the first agents hired at Intero in 2002, we’re excited to see Cathy return home.”
“I am overjoyed to be welcoming Cathy back to the Intero family,” said John Thompson, President of Intero. “I have known Cathy for years and have admired what she has done for the real estate industry as a whole.
