June 2026
We are honored to share that Craft & Bauer | Real Broker has been recognized in the 2026 RealTrends Verified rankings as one of the Best Real Estate Mega Teams in the United States.
This year, our team ranked #277 in the nation, with $108.68 million in verified production and 165 transaction sides in 2025. These rankings highlight the top 1.5% of real estate professionals in the country, and every figure behind them is independently verified rather than self-reported. That distinction matters to us. It means the recognition reflects real work, real homes, and real families.
And while we are proud of the ranking, the number that stays with us most is 165.
Behind each of those transaction sides is a person, a couple, or a family who trusted us with one of the most significant decisions of their lives. A first home. A move closer to family. A new chapter after a hard one. A dream property in the desert. Those moments are the real measure of what we do, and they are the reason this milestone feels so meaningful.
Built on craft, care, and relationships
When we founded Craft & Bauer in 2019, the vision was simple. We wanted to build a team grounded in genuine relationships, deep market knowledge, and a real commitment to the craft of this profession. Not the biggest team for the sake of being big, but the kind of team where every client feels cared for and every agent feels supported.
Earning a place among the country's top mega teams tells us that vision is working. It is a reflection of the agents who show up with heart every single day, the systems and standards we hold ourselves to, and the culture we have built together across Southern California, Northern California, the Coachella Valley, the Central Valley, and Arizona.
To our agents and leadership: this is your achievement. You earned it one conversation, one showing, and one closing at a time.
A thank you to the people who made this possible
More than anything, this recognition belongs to our clients. To everyone who picked up the phone, sent the referral, trusted our guidance through a tough negotiation, or simply believed in us, thank you. You are the foundation of everything we have built, and you are the reason we get to do work we love.
To our community and our sphere, thank you for cheering us on, for sharing in these wins, and for being part of the Craft & Bauer story.
Onward
A milestone like this is not a finish line. It is a marker on a longer road, and it makes us more excited than ever for what is ahead. We are going to keep raising our standards, keep showing up for our clients, and keep building a team that people are proud to be part of.
Thank you for being here with us. Here is to what comes next.
