Compass’s combined 2025 footprint reached 29.13% of U.S. transaction sides and 39.44% of sales volume in RealTrends Verified data, far above its standalone 5.90% and 11% shares.
That jump comes from folding in Anywhere Advisors and major franchise brands including Coldwell Banker, Sotheby’s International Realty, CENTURY 21, ERA, BHGRE, Corcoran and Christie’s International Real Estate.
The enlarged Compass ecosystem accounted for more than 1.2 million transaction sides worth over $940.299 billion in 2025, giving it a clear lead over other consolidators.
Real’s planned tie-up with REMAX would have lifted its 2025 share to 12.26% by sides and 9.69% by volume, while eXp’s NextHome acquisition only nudged it to 8.32% and 6.57%.
The rankings underscore how nine months of dealmaking have reshaped brokerage competition, even as Compass says agents remain free to market listings as sellers choose within legal rules.
