MADISON, N.J., Nov. 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Realogy Holdings Corp. (NYSE: RLGY) (the "Company") announced today that its indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Realogy Group LLC ("Realogy Group"), together with a co-issuer, priced $300 million aggregate principal amount of 5.250% senior notes due 2021 (the "Notes") in connection with their previously announced private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The closing of the offering is expected to occur on November 21, 2014, subject to customary closing conditions.
