REALTRENDS RECOGNIZES THE TOP LOCAL REAL ESTATE AGENTS State and national sales rankings highlight industry-leading professionals. by Staff Writers Every summer, real estate industry analysts RealTrends releases the definitive ranking of real estate professionals throughout the United States. For years, this independently-verified, state-bystate ranking was known as America’s Best and recognized the top individuals and sales teams in the industry based on the prior year’s sales volume or number of transaction sides represented. New for 2024, the state-by-state ranking now reflects the integrity of its process with an updated title— RealTrends Verified—and includes a broader data set than ever before. The esteemed national ranking, The Thousand, is now released simultaneously with RealTrends Verified and continues to rank America’s top1,000 residential real estate agents and teams based on prior year sales volume and transaction sides. The Thousand comprises a collection of four distinct categories: the top-250 agents by sides, top-250 agents by sales volume, top250 teams by sides, and top-250 teams by sales volume. For the coveted 2024 national rankings, Jackson Hole Sotheby’s International Realty proudly supported two of the top-250 sales teams featured within the sales volume category of the RealTrends Thousand. Huff | Vaughn | Sassi ascended the list to rank eighth in the nation for sales volume among medium teams—up from 41 in 2023, and 18 in 2022. The McPeak Group joined the collection of the top-250 teams in the nation by sales volume at number 149 for the year. These accomplishments simultaneously
garnered Huff | Vaughn | Sassi and The McPeak Group the number one and number two rankings for medium teams within the state of Wyoming, respectively. “The recognition of our agents within these rankings is an ongoing testament to the hard work, professionalism, and market knowledge that they provide to their clients,” said Donna Clinton, managing broker and chief operating officer for Jackson Hole Sotheby’s International Realty. “We are proud to have assembled such an incredible group of sales agents, and to have so many represent Jackson Hole, Teton Valley, and our brokerage on these prestigious industry lists.” All told, these rankings highlight the accomplishments of 38 real estate professionals from Jackson Hole Sotheby’s International Realty during the last year—nine teams and seven individuals. A sales agent’s ranking by RealTrends for any particular year is truly an accomplishment, and is further exemplified by those who are consistently recognized within these lists year after year. “It really speaks to the value of working with someone with proven expertise,” added Clinton on what is often defined as a relationship-driven industry.

Thousand help to quantify the success of the top sales agents in the United States, the data is not without some of its own limitations. With a selfdescribed focus on residential real estate sales, RealTrends elects not to incorporate sales data from vacant land, commercial sales and other real estate transactions into their rankings. Stateby-state data devisions can occasionally fail to capture the nuances of a border-encompassing region like ours. Nonetheless, RealTrends’ continued focus on verifiable data provides buyers and sellers with a valuable metric when selecting an agent to work with—one that replaces some of the usual superlatives with a data-driven approach. Above all else, though, it remains the people behind these numbers that mark the true successes within the real estate industry—successes that are best measured one transaction at a time, by those on either side of the table. “As we continue to navigate shifts in the real estate market, Sotheby’s International Realty agents worldwide remain at the forefront,” said Philip White, president and CEO of Sotheby’s International Realty. “Discerning buyers and sellers rely on our esteemed real estate advisors for their unparalleled expertise and exceptional service. I take pride in their accomplishments and consider it a privilege to collaborate with the industry’s finest.” In this rapidly-evolving market, there has never been a better time to seek the counsel of a trusted real estate professional.
