Welcome to logo tournament. I hope I can be of service to you. I specialize in Real Estate logos and I was wondering if you are with Keller Williams? (The colors are the same) I have had great success with Keller Williams clients on this site already. Here are some KW clients who have selected my work:

I also feel it needs a boldness to make it recognizable on a sign from a distance...even before the words can be read. Thin lines and words only tend to be hard to read from a distance and are proven to not "stick" in ones mind. I try to give a unique icon that invokes a memory of recognition even without the client needing to read the wordmark.
I also am trying to make sure your logo does not resemble a cardiologist or a charitable organization...as both generally use heart shaped icons. For most I chose to keep the heart subtle, so as to be clear about what you do.
I chose elements using the "Little White Picket Fence" as it is often tied to the American Dream of home ownership.
I welcome your feedback and suggestions.
Best Regards,
Paul
