Kretz Family Prepares for Season 5 of The Agency
As the highly anticipated fifth season of The Agency gears up for its premiere, the Kretz family made a special appearance on the set of Quotidien on Thursday, December 5, 2024. Three of the Kretz brothers—Martin, Valentin, and Raphaël—were there to unveil exciting new episodes and share intriguing insights about changes that could reshape their family’s real estate journey.
Life-Changing Experiences and New Challenges
The brothers reflected on the profound impact the show has had on their lives, stating, “It changed our lives.” They expressed gratitude for the numerous messages they’ve received from viewers who have been inspired to pursue careers in real estate. Working as a family and helping others realize their dreams has been incredibly rewarding. However, they also acknowledged the less glamorous aspects of the job, including the tedious paperwork that often goes unseen. Despite these challenges, their passion for the business continues to grow, leading to potential tensions within the family dynamic.
While discussing the upcoming season, the brothers revealed some notable changes. Family members have been dispersed, with their parents featured in season 4 from Brazil, and brother Louis residing in Barcelona. The youngest sibling, Raphaël, returned to the business after initially pursuing a law degree. This season introduces a new character, Alexandre, who has stirred the pot within the agency. Martin disclosed that bringing in an outsider has led to tensions, as seen in a clip from the first episode, where a heated argument unfolds regarding Alexandre’s knowledge of real estate. The agency’s founder, Olivier, expresses his concerns, stating, “He knows nothing about real estate!” to which Martin suggests they can discuss it further, but Olivier deems this a “fundamental change.” This disagreement prompts Martin to exit the room, disheartened by the ongoing conflict.
On set, the brothers emphasized their desire to accelerate the agency’s growth compared to their parents, acknowledging that some friction is inevitable. Viewers will need to tune in to see how these disputes unfold, but one thing is clear: Alexandre is “still there.” Additionally, the Kretz family shared that this season features their most significant sale to date, surpassing a previous valuation of 30 million euros. Audiences can expect to witness breathtaking properties, including the birthplace of Jean Renoir, an organic house nestled in a jungle, and the largest estate in Île-de-France, priced at a staggering 180 million euros. With such luxurious offerings, the show promises to captivate viewers. A spin-off titled Destination Seekers is also on the horizon. Addressing rumors of show manipulation, the Kretz brothers clarified that filming spans nine months, and circumstances can shift dramatically between the initial filming and the final airing.
