The assistance of a skilled real estate agent is more important than ever right now – and according to a prestigious survey, more top-ranked agents are with RE/MAX than any other brand. For the sixth time in eight years, RE/MAX agents have claimed the most spots in the RealTrends + Tom Ferry “The Thousand” ranking.
“The Thousand,” which is advertised in The Wall Street Journal, ranks participating U.S. real estate agents by the number of homes they sold in the previous year, as well as their sales volume.
“The recognition of our agents on the REALTrends + Tom Ferry rankings is a testament to the vast amount of talent, professionalism and dedication in our extensive network,” says RE/MAX President Nick Bailey, also referring to the strong showing of more than 3,100 RE/MAX agents named to the “America’s Best Real Estate Professionals” list. “Earning these recognitions year-after-year is an incredible accomplishment, especially considering the challenges of 2020. Respected industry surveys like these confirm that RE/MAX agents don’t miss a beat and can thrive in any circumstance.”
In the 16th annual ranking, RE/MAX agents earned 148 spots out of 1,000 – more than any other brand. RE/MAX agents also earned the highest number of rankings for closed transaction sides, representing 30% of the ranked individuals and teams. It’s another metric RE/MAX leads in – having earned that honor consecutively since 2014.
