Dallas-Fort Worth’s top brokers see deal volume rise as prices dip

Total volume for top 20 players hits $7.7B as Perry-Wisdom-Barrett, Ben Caballero led pack

The top residential brokers in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex handled fewer deals over the last year, but they raked in about the same dollar amount.

The top 20 brokers and teams made 15,845 home sales from April 2025 to April 2026, according to an analysis of on-market sales valued at over $100,000 in multiple listing service records by TRD Data. That was nearly 6 percent higher than the same time period the year before.

However, the total dollar volume of sales clocked in at just under $7.7 billion — 0.4 percent lower than last year, according to the analysis. That brought the average of the top 20 players to about $485,500, down from $516,300 last year.

Dollar volume stagnated across the Dallas-Fort Worth market as prices continue to come down in the region, which saw a sales frenzy after the pandemic. In April, the median sales price in the Dallas metropolitan area was roughly $409,000, down 3.8 percent year over year, according to Redfin. Meanwhile, the national median sales price rose 2.4 percent to about $396,000.

“There are still sellers out there who want to test the market and say, ‘Hey, let’s see if we can get X, Y, Z price,” said Keith Conlon, president and CEO of Allie Beth Allman & Associates, adding that some high-end sellers will float an off-market, exclusive price that differs if the property hits the market. “I think it’s just educating the seller on what’s realistic and what’s not.”

As for individual brokers and teams, the Perry-Wisdom-Barrett team at Allie Beth Allman & Associates had the top average deal size, of $4 million, over the past year. The firm closed some $281.6 million worth of sales across 70 transactions, which was the second-lowest number of sales among the top-20 brokers.

It’s a strategy that works for the team of just four agents, Conlon said.

“Compared to some of these other teams, you might not see as many transactions, but when they get a listing or a buyer, it’s in that luxury space more than not,” he said. “Some of these teams that do huge volume also have 10, 12, 15 agents. So I think it makes it even more impressive what they’ve been able to accomplish.”

The group with the smallest number of deals was the Detwiler Wood Group at Compass, with 63 sales over the past year. However, the group’s average deal size was $3.7 million, placing the group second after the Perry-Wisdom-Barrett team.

Meanwhile, the broker with the highest dollar volume was Ben Caballero at HomesUSA.com, who brought in $2.4 billion across 4,923 transactions. However, Caballero’s average deal clocked in at about $493,700 — 13th overall.
