Top 10 Brokerages
Last Updated: April 8, 2026
Scale and consolidation reshaped the residential brokerage landscape in 2025.
Compass once again led the pack by sales volume, a position it reinforced through aggressive dealmaking and platform investment, while cloud- and platform-native competitors continued to press their advantage in recruiting and productivity.
The headline stories of the year read like a playbook for consolidation: Compass amplified its scale through a string of acquisitions and, by early 2026, completed the transformational acquisition with Anywhere that brought several legacy brands into a single platform. Rocket Companies’ acquisition of Redfin, meanwhile, folded a high-traffic consumer and brokerage platform into a broader mortgage and services ecosystem while a steady cadence of targeted brokerage deals — both large and boutique — continued to move market share around the Top 10.
Beneath the M&A headlines, pricing lifted sales faster than transaction counts while cloud-based models posted outsized growth and luxury-focused brokerages grew sales despite flat or falling sides, reflecting higher average transaction values and market mix shifts.
