RE/MAX Has More Top-Ranked Agents Than Any Other Real Estate Brand, Survey Shows

Looking for a top agent? Look to RE/MAX!

More of the nation’s top-ranked agents are with RE/MAX than any other brand, according to the 15th Annual REAL Trends “The Thousand” rankings. RE/MAX agents have claimed the most spots, which are based on transaction sides and sales volume, for five out of the last seven years.

“Delivering unmatched value to homebuyers and sellers is the core of our business,” said Adam Contos, CEO of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. “Leading all brands in the number of transaction side and sales volume rankings speaks to the unrivaled professionalism and expertise of the RE/MAX agent. The real estate agent is the most important part of the real estate transaction and seeing our agents recognized time and time again as top producers in ‘The Thousand’ says a lot about their passion, focus and perseverance.”

RE/MAX agents are represented in each of the survey’s 12 categories, earning a total of 136 spots out of 1,000. Notably, when it comes to closing the most residential transaction sides, meaning closed sales, RE/MAX affiliates represented 22% of the ranked individuals and teams. That’s the highest number of rankings earned for transaction sides – an honor RE/MAX has carried since 2014.

This year, teams were measured by size – small teams include 2-5 agents; medium teams include 6-10 agents; and large teams include 11 or more agents. Qualifying agents owning brokerages were also identified as being either agent-owned brokerages or team-owned brokerages.
