How We Rank Agents
AgentScore rankings are built entirely from verified transaction data — no paid placements, no self-reported stats.
The short version
We pull publicly available real estate transaction records across British Columbia and score each agent based on a combination of objective performance signals. The result is a composite rank that reflects sustained, real-world performance — not who has the best headshot or the biggest ad budget.
What goes into the score
Transaction Volume
We look at how many deals an agent has closed. Consistent activity signals a working agent, not a part-timer.
Recent Activity
Markets change. An agent active in the last 12–24 months is weighted more heavily than one coasting on decade-old sales.
Both Sides of the Deal
We track performance on both listing and buying transactions separately. A strong listing agent isn't always the best buyer's agent.
Price Negotiation
We analyze how close to asking price agents tend to close — on both sides. This gives a signal of negotiating effectiveness without cherry-picking a few transactions.
Local Market Coverage
Agents are ranked within the markets they actually work in. A top agent in Kelowna is ranked against their Kelowna peers, not agents across the province.
What we don't use
— Reviews or testimonials — too easy to game
— Agent-submitted bios or awards
— Paid promotions or featured listings
— Years of experience alone — activity matters more
How rankings are updated
Rankings are refreshed automatically as new transaction data becomes available. An agent's score can rise or fall over time depending on their recent performance. We don't freeze scores — a rank should reflect what an agent is doing now, not just their career highlight reel.
A note on fairness
No agent, brokerage, or third party can pay to influence their ranking. If you believe there is an error in an agent's data, contact us and we'll investigate.
