Franchise records aggressive worldwide growth and agent count YOY increase

AUSTIN, TEXAS March 13, 2023 — Keller Williams (KW), the world’s largest real estate franchise by agent count, reports year-end results, having achieved significant worldwide growth, technology milestones, and topped franchise and corporate culture rankings.

“In our 40th year of business, we continued to grow our agent count,” said Gary Keller, executive chairman of KW. “As a company, we are well-positioned as the place for entrepreneurs to thrive.” 

At the end of 2022, KW was home to 174,019 agents in the United States and Canada and 17,858 agents operating outside of the United States and Canada, for a total of 191,877 agents worldwide – a 2 percent increase over FY ’21.

“Closing out 2022, it’s clear that taking a new listing is harder than ever,” said Marc King, president of KW. “To that end, we’re singularly focused on enabling our agents through training, coaching, masterminding, modeling, technology, and more to charge the storm and position their businesses to continue to grow over time, no matter the market.”

  • As of Dec. 31, KW agents closed more than 1.1 million transactions.
  • KW agents closed $472.9 billion in sales volume.

“Looking ahead, we are pleased with our long-term growth path as our agent partners move to take additional market share through the market shift – as we have throughout our history,” said King.

“Our gains can best be seen by comparing our results to 2019, which reflected a housing market not influenced by historically low mortgage rates and COVID-19 economic conditions,” said King. 

“Compared to 2019, across the U.S. and Canada, our agent count and sales volume jumped 9.2% and 34.7%, respectively,” said King.
