AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 8, 2026--

Keller Williams Realty, LLC (KW), the world's largest real estate franchise by agent count, was again ranked as the No. 1 real estate franchise brand in the U.S. by agent count, transaction sides, and sales volume by T3 Sixty, a leading residential real estate analyst firm.

“Earning the No. 1 position only happens through people, models, and execution,” said Chris Czarnecki, CEO and president of KW. “This recognition is a direct result of KW-affiliated agents succeeding at the highest level, supported by strong franchisee leadership and our powerful culture that drives growth.”

As part of T3 Sixty’s annual Real Estate Almanac rankings, KW secured the top spot for the ninth consecutive year by achieving $370.7 billion in U.S.-based sales volume, 796,658 transaction sides, and 136,511 in U.S.-based agent count in 2025.

KW has been ranked the No. 1 real estate franchise brand by T3 Sixty since tracking began in 2018, based solely on US-based, KW-affiliated agent count, transaction sides, and sales volume.

“We help entrepreneurs thrive, and everything else follows,” said Czarnecki. “As a people development company, we’re continuing to invest in open technology, world-class training, and the systems that allow KW-affiliated agents to call the play and win the day for clients.”

In its 13th year, the Real Estate Almanac, published by T3 Sixty, is one of the most comprehensive reports, analyzing the residential real estate industry’s leaders and executives, brokerages, corporations, technology providers, REALTOR® associations, and MLSs.
