In an extraordinary recognition of excellence in real estate, local agent Jennifer Vaughan with Ansley Real Estate Christie’s International has been named to the prestigious RealTrends + Tom Ferry The Thousand list for 2023. This national ranking, presented by RealTrends and Tom Ferry International coaching, and advertised in The Wall Street Journal, honors the top .065% of more than 1.6 million licensed Realtors® nationwide based on 2022 data.

Nothing about today’s market is “normal.” Like all market shifts, there are some similarities, but different economic circumstances. This year’s rankings mirror what is happening in the market — low inventory, still high prices — with a record number of real estate professionals qualifying by sales volume and transaction sides, although average sides dropped from last year.

In 2023, The Thousand agents and teams, based on 2022 data, achieved a remarkable total of 233,330 transaction sides and a sales volume of $169 billion. Despite the competitive landscape, a lower percentage of agents qualified in both transaction sides and sales volume this year, underscoring the significant achievement of those who made the list.

Vaughan’s inclusion in this elite group reflects her exceptional dedication, expertise, and success in navigating the challenging real estate market. Specializing in luxury properties in the Lake Oconee area, Vaughan has consistently delivered outstanding results for her clients, connecting them with exceptional opportunities and ensuring a seamless real estate experience.

“It is an honor to be recognized among the top real estate professionals in the nation,” said Vaughan. “This achievement is a testament to the trust my clients place in me and my commitment to providing the highest level of service in every transaction.”

The RealTrends + Tom Ferry The Thousand ranking is widely regarded as the trusted source in the real estate industry, providing an annual benchmark for excellence. Vaughan’s recognition on this list highlights her as a leader in the field and a trusted advisor for buyers, sellers, and investors in the Lake Oconee area.
