Nearly Half of Agents Sold 1 or Fewer Homes Last Year—Let That Sink In

According to a January 2024 study by the Consumer Federation of America (CFA), "49 percent of agents sold either one house or none in the previous year." That’s not just a stat—it’s a red flag for buyers and sellers alike.

“The study found that 70 percent of agents sold five or fewer houses in the past year, and the median number of sales per agent was just two.”

Meanwhile, you're navigating one of the most important (and expensive) transactions of your life. Do you want someone who sold one house last year guiding you through that?

 

 

Experience Isn’t Just a Perk—It’s Protection

In today’s market, experience is your leverage. You deserve more than someone with a license—you need a professional who understands the nuances of pricing, negotiating, and navigating complex deals.

When you hire a top-performing agent, you're hiring:

  • A market tactician who’s actively selling and solving problems
  • A negotiator who can protect your investment
  • A dedicated pro who knows how to win in tight markets

 

 

This Is Why It Matters

“Having a license doesn’t necessarily mean that an agent is active or experienced.”
 — CFA Executive Director Stephen Brobeck

And that’s the issue. Real estate isn’t a hobby—it’s a profession that can make or break your equity. If 49% of agents aren’t even doing deals, how can they possibly guide clients well?
