The Agency Ranked #2 Independent Brokerage in the U.S.: What It Means for Atlanta Clients and Agents

Awards John Andersen April 24, 2026

The Agency continues to gain national recognition, recently earning the distinction of being ranked the #2 independent brokerage in the United States in RISMedia’s 2026 Power Broker Report. The firm also placed #12 overall nationwide by sales volume, reinforcing its position as one of the fastest-growing and most respected brands in real estate.

For clients and agents here in Atlanta, especially across Midtown, Buckhead, and the city’s intown neighborhoods, this recognition is more than a national headline. It reflects the level of service, exposure, and opportunity available locally through The Agency Atlanta – Midtown.

A National Platform Backed by Real Results

RISMedia’s Power Broker Report, now in its 38th year, ranks the top brokerages in the country based on closed sales volume. The latest report, based on 2025 performance, highlights The Agency’s continued momentum across both corporate and franchise offices nationwide.

In 2025, The Agency achieved:

  • $17.9 billion in total sales volume
  • 15,448 closed transactions
  • 28.5% growth in sales volume year-over-year
  • 18.1% increase in transactions year-over-year

These numbers tell a clear story. The Agency is not only growing, it is doing so with consistency, scale, and a strong focus on agent performance and client outcomes.

What This Means for Atlanta Real Estate Clients

For buyers and sellers in Midtown Atlanta, Buckhead, and surrounding intown neighborhoods, working with a team connected to a top-ranked national brokerage brings meaningful advantages.

Clients benefit from:

  • Global marketing exposure through The Agency’s international network
  • Elevated branding and presentation supported by in-house creative and public relations resources
  • Access to a broader buyer pool, including relocation and luxury clientele
  • Local expertise paired with national and international reach

At the same time, the experience remains highly personalized. The Agency Atlanta Intown continues to focus on what matters most locally: understanding Atlanta’s condo market, walkable neighborhoods, high-rise living, and lifestyle-driven real estate decisions.

Clients exploring the local market can start with the Atlanta neighborhoods hub, browse Featured Listings, or review Past Sales to better understand recent market activity.

A Platform Built for High-Performing Agents

This recognition also highlights something equally important: The Agency is built around its agents.

With a strong emphasis on collaboration, marketing support, and brand positioning, The Agency provides agents with the tools to elevate their business while maintaining independence and flexibility.

For agents in Atlanta, particularly those focused on Midtown condos, Buckhead luxury properties, and intown neighborhoods, The Agency Atlanta – Midtown offers a platform that combines:

Why This Moment Matters Locally

Atlanta continues to attract new residents, investors, and companies. As demand grows in walkable, amenity-rich areas like Midtown and Buckhead, the need for experienced agents backed by a strong brand becomes even more important.

For condo buyers, this is especially relevant. Midtown and Buckhead remain two of Atlanta’s most active condo markets, with buyers often evaluating building amenities, HOA structures, lifestyle access, and long-term value. Helpful local resources include the Atlanta condo buildings directory, Midtown condo buildings, and Buckhead condo buildings.

Being part of a top-ranked national brokerage positions The Agency Atlanta – Midtown to better serve clients navigating this evolving market and creates new opportunities for agents looking to grow within it.
