AREAA releases 2025 A-List of top-producing agents and teams

The Asian Real Estate Association of America (AREAA) has named 109 individual agents and 64 teams to its annual A-List of top producers.

Honorees closed 7,743 transaction sides and recorded $8.49 billion in sales volume in 2024. The top 50 agents and 25 teams will be recognized at AREAA’s national convention in Santa Monica, Calif., Oct. 2-4.

“The A-List represents more than a set of rankings – it’s a celebration of the drive and talent we have within AREAA and the impact we make on the industry, buyers and sellers,” AREAA President Jamie Tian said in a statement. “These agents and teams are helping to build and strengthen communities and support their clients in achieving the American Dream of homeownership.

“Their work elevates the visibility and voice of AREAA, and we’re extremely proud to recognize their success.”

RealTrends Verified data was cross-referenced with AREAA national rankings in compiling the A-List.

AREAA allowed submissions from members who closed at least 25 sides or $10 million in volume individually — or 40 sides or $16 million in volume for teams led by members.

Collective production of honorees would rank as the 21st largest U.S. brokerage by sales volume and 50th by transaction sides, AREAA added.
