Scofield Group clarifies RealTrends Las Vegas rankings

Scofield Group is clarifying how RealTrends ranks multi-market teams after the 2026 list placed the Las Vegas brokerage No. 2 in Las Vegas and Nevada. The company says city labels in the ranking do not necessarily mean every transaction counted in a team’s total happened in that market.

Why it matters: - RealTrends rankings are often used to compare real estate teams by market, but multi-market submissions can blur what a city ranking actually represents. - For consumers, agents and media, the distinction affects how Las Vegas production is interpreted against teams that also operate in Reno or other Nevada markets. - Scofield Group says clear market context is needed to compare team performance accurately.

What happened: - Scofield Group said the 2026 RealTrends Verified rankings, based on 2025 production, placed the brokerage No. 2 in Las Vegas and Nevada within the Enterprise Team category. - The brokerage reported 479 transaction sides and $209.68 million in sales volume. - RealTrends also ranked Scofield Group No. 83 nationally by transaction sides and No. 105 nationally by sales volume. - Scofield Group said its reported production came from its Southern Nevada operation.

The details: - RealTrends allows one submission per team or agent and permits qualifying production from multiple locations to be combined into a single entry. - RealTrends told Scofield Group that a team’s ranking is based on the state and city listed in the submission, not on where the transactions took place. - That means a team listed under Las Vegas can include qualifying production from outside Las Vegas in the figures used for the ranking. - RealTrends' public profile for Nevada Real Estate Group, or NREG, lists the organization under Las Vegas with 789 transaction sides and $361.58 million in 2025 sales volume. - RealTrends ranks NREG No. 1 in Las Vegas and Nevada within the Enterprise Team category. - The public RealTrends profile does not break out how much of NREG’s production came from Las Vegas versus Reno or other Nevada markets. - RealTrends also separates teams into categories such as Enterprise Team and Mega Team, rather than publishing one combined Las Vegas list across all team sizes. - The Craig Tann Group reported 877 transaction sides and $485.93 million in 2025 sales volume and ranked No. 1 in Las Vegas and Nevada within the Mega Team category. - Team Stevens in Reno reported 317 transaction sides and $153.62 million in sales volume. - The Napoli Group in Las Vegas reported 104 transaction sides and $179.79 million in volume.

Between the lines: - The ranking number alone does not tell the full story when teams operate across multiple Nevada markets. - A Las Vegas label on a RealTrends profile does not prove that all counted transactions occurred in Las Vegas. - Without transaction-level or market-specific data, public RealTrends profiles cannot establish a Las Vegas-only total for a multi-market organization. - Kirby Scofield, broker and owner of Scofield Group, said verified production and clear market context give consumers the most accurate comparison.

What's next: - Scofield Group is continuing to use the RealTrends rankings to make the case that consumers should look beyond headline placement and examine methodology. - The brokerage says public ranking data should be read alongside team size, total verified production and geographic coverage. - RealTrends Verified will continue to publish rankings based on verified production and team-size classifications.

The bottom line: - Scofield Group’s No. 2 Las Vegas ranking is real, but the brokerage says the city label should not be read as proof that every transaction in the total happened in Las Vegas.
