National Association of Realtors 2007 Top 100
real estate brokers ranked by transaction sides.
Are real estate sales down? Across the board if
you look at these Top 100. Yet these Top 100
brokers accounted for 1,449,589 transaction sides
in 2007. Remember that there are two sides to a
transaction, buyer and seller, and we do know that
brokers like to try to keep things in the family, so
just for fun, let’s assume that all of these Top 100
brokers were able to keep every transaction within
their own brokerage, buyer and seller. That would
mean that there were only 724,794 transactions,
or an opportunity for 724,794 home inspections.
With about 9,000 iNACHI members, did you do
your 80 home inspections for these Top 100 in
2007? I did! In fact I did double, triple, quadruple,
quintuple that: see #10, 14, 15, 40, 42. Ooooops.
That means that I took someone else’s 80, doesn’t
it? Sorry about that (NOT!). Remember, these are
just the Top 100 brokers. There’s are thousands
of brokers, so get out there and get yours. PDF
