The Thousand Top Real Estate Professionals was announced on September 6, 2011 with four separate categories honoring the top 250 residential agents and agent teams for excellence in:
- Individual Sales Professionals - Sales volume
- Individual Sales Professionals - Transaction sides (in each real estate transaction, there are two sides that can be represented by a real estate agent: a buyer's and a seller's.)
- Team Professionals - Sales Volume
- Team Professionals - Transaction sides
"The best individual agents and teams were nothing short of phenomenal considering the challenging real estate market," said Steve Murray, founder of Denver-based publishing and communications company REAL Trends, which compiled the list. "Ironically, if you look at the top 250 in each category you will find that collectively, their sales volume and transaction sides held up quite nicely compared with the market as a whole."
"Becoming a member of such an elite group as The Thousand Top Real Estate Professionals is an incredible accomplishment in any market, but what these associates did during these challenging times is impressive on so many levels," said Marti Gallardo, vice president of classified advertising for The Wall Street Journal. "Their efforts topped 99.99 percent of the more than 1 million REALTORS nationwide."
