Navigating the complexities of buying or selling a home is easier with a skilled real estate professional who understands your needs. With a low cost of living, no state income tax and affordable housing, people from all over are flocking to Tennessee and driving the demand for knowledgeable experts in the area who can navigate this dynamic market.
Experts believe Tennessee's housing market will see notable shifts in 2025. While some areas may see an increase in available inventory, others should remain highly competitive, with demand outpacing supply. Navigating these conditions requires a professional with insight, strategy and a keen understanding of value, pricing and timing.
To help buyers and sellers connect with the best in the business, Newsweek has partnered with Statista to spotlight the Top Real Estate Professionals Tennessee 2025.
We define Real Estate Professionals as licensed individuals who help buyers and sellers navigate real estate transactions and who own an individual ID in one or more Multiple Listing Service systems.
Our study utilized MLS data to calculate and rank real estate professionals based on their performance. The MLS data provided a comprehensive dataset encompassing property listings, sales and agent information.
To assess an individual's performance, a set of four key performance indicators was established and weighted: revenue, sales volume, price performance and success rate.
Professionals recognized include Ken Adams from Ken Adam Real Estate Team Keller Williams in Clarksville, Laura Baugh from Onward Real Estate – Cool Springs Office in Franklin and Gary Ashton from The Ashton Real Estate Group of Re/Max Advantage in Nashville.
We hope this list serves as a valuable resource for anyone looking to buy or sell property in the Volunteer State.

METHODOLOGY
For the first time, Newsweek and Statista are awarding "Tennessee's Top Real Estate Professionals" - licensed individuals who help buyers and sellers navigate real estate transactions.
This study leverages Multiple Listing Service (MLS) data to rank real estate professionals based on their calculated performance. The MLS data provides a comprehensive dataset encompassing property listings, sales, and agent information for a given state.
To ensure data accuracy and consistency, rigorous data cleaning and preprocessing steps were undertaken. Only Sales reported into MLS systems are included.
To assess the individual's performance, a set of four key performance indicators (KPIs) was established and weighted:
1. Revenue (30%): Total revenue in residential sales from 2021 to 2024
2. Sales Volume (30%): Total sales volume from 2021 to 2024
3. Price Performance (25%): Median price of objects sold from 2021 to 2024 & price ratio sale price to listing price
4. Success Rate (15%): Median days on the market before sale
Based on being above or below the median score of the top 150 list, professionals gain a five- or four-star rating and are sorted alphabetically within their star scoring group on the list.
Disclaimer
The selection of the real estate professionals and the definition of the evaluation criteria were based on independent journalistic criteria of Newsweek and Statista. The evaluation was carried out by the statistics and market research company Statista. Newsweek and Statista make no claim to the completeness of the real estate professionals examined.
The ranking only includes real estate professionals that qualify according to the criteria described in this document. A position in the ranking is a positive recognition based on the analysis of the available MLS data sources available at the time.
In addition, events after February 10th, 2024, were not considered in the analysis. As such, the results of this list should not be used as the sole source of information for future deliberations. The information provided through this ranking should rather be considered in conjunction with other available information about a real estate professional.
The quality of real estate professionals that are not included in the ranking is not disputed.
