Atlanta’s real estate elite: Top agents in a trillion-dollar market

Inside Hotlanta's sizzling real estate scene

Atlanta is one of the most active and valuable real estate markets in the United States. The city represents over $1 trillion in residential real estate asset value, creating a ripe environment for real estate agents and homebuyers alike. Atlanta also claims the crown as the No. 1 market for millennial homebuyers, with over 83,000 annual millennial-driven home purchases. 

However, Altos Research reports that as of Aug. 30, the city of Atlanta only has 2,793 active listings for houses and 2,192 active condos. In a market with over 20,000 licensed real estate agents, winning listings and buyer representation is increasingly competitive. Even zooming out to the broader Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta, GA region only yields 18,294 active listings for houses. 

And like many competitive markets, the top real estate agents represent an increasingly large percentage of transaction volume, GCI and market share. According to RealTrends Verified analysis, the top 50 real estate agents in Atlanta do greater than $19 million in annual sales and it takes greater than $5 million in annual sales to crack the top 75. 

RealTrends Verified City Rankings bring awareness, recognition and discovery to the top performing agents in Atlanta and other key markets across the United States. Leading agents like Christa Huffstickler of Engel & Völkers Atlanta, Meko Fountain at Compass, and Shanna Bradley of Ansley Real Estate Christie’s International, dominate the market — each closing more than 70 transaction sides in 2023. Huffstickler currently leads the Atlanta rankings with 116 transaction sides. 

Huffstickler’s 116 transactions equates to nearly $90 million in 2023 volume, making her the No. 2 agent in the state of Georgia and the 125th most-successful agent nationally by transaction sides. 

The following represents the current Atlanta RealTrends Verified City Ranking. Nominations and data submissions are currently open, but close on September 13th, 2024. Final Atlanta rankings and data will be released in Q4.
