  • The typical NAR member had 8 transaction sides in 2010—this is up from 7 sides in 2009.
  • Brokers and broker associates typically had 10 transactions, while sales agents typically had 7.
  • 51 percent of members had transaction involving a property in foreclosure and 44 percent of members had a transaction involving a short sale.
  • While the median transaction sides increased, the brokerage sales volume fell to $1.1 million in 2010 from $1.2 million in 2009. Members had more transactions (typically), but the total volume of what those sales were worth was lower in 2010 than in 2009.
  • A transaction side can either be the selling or buying side of a real estate transaction. If the agent worked as both the buyer and seller’s agent that would count as two transaction sides.
