This month, Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty (RSIR) revealed the outcomes of their yearly sales assessments, comparing the top ten largest brands by sales volumes in 2023. RSIR maintained its leading position across several categories, boasting superior average sales values for waterfront homes on both ends of the transactions. Additionally, showcased higher production rates and greater inventory per agent, all while achieving swifter sales compared to competitors.

Dean Jones, President & CEO of Realogics, Inc., expressed pride in their global real estate advisors for consistently surpassing their peers across ten significant sales benchmarks crucial to consumers. Despite industry challenges throughout the year, Jones emphasized the impressive achievements of Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty as a boutique brokerage firm. He attributed these successes to the quality of their clientele, the caliber of their team, and their unwavering commitment to delivering outstanding results with each transaction.

Jones backed his statements with statistics sourced from Trendgraphix research, which collates data from the Northwest Multiple Listing Service (NWMLS). These statistics specifically reflect RSIR's production, without amalgamation with other brand affiliates within the NWMLS.

While it’s true Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty (RSIR) manages the fewest number of licensed agents compared to their immediate peers, this collective is notably the most productive, especially in the luxury market segments. With 275 agents, RSIR ranks third in King County for resales above $2 million, second in Kitsap County above $1 million, and leads the market in new construction inventory throughout the Puget Sound Region.

Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty agents were nearly balanced with 54% of sales volumes representing sellers and 46% representing buyers. In addition to local sales, RSIR agents also made scores of significant referrals throughout North America and internationally.

“We are so fortunate to work with many of the top real estate agents in the industry and RSIR is often associated with record sales values in the region,” added Dean Jones. “It has been rewarding to see top performers who already dominate certain neighborhoods expand their horizons to make valuable referrals for their clients in other markets represented by the Sotheby’s International Realty brand around the world.”
