2023 Phoenix Magazine's Top 50 Agents

TOP 5 BILLBOARD AGENTS* Mid Mod REALTOR® Ryan Smith // The postwar building boom birthed a bevy of midcentury modern homes. Realtor, designer, and builder Ryan Smith has taken his love for the architectural style and used it to help connect people to and restore or preserve these historic homes. *These real estate agents march to their own beat – and connect to clients by using their unique brands to stand out from the crowd. TOP 50 AGENTS* Brian North // At his eponymous brokerage, North “priced and sold our home in the Biltmore area quickly,” according to one client. “He knows the Arcadia/Biltmore area and understands what price point you can get. The photos his team took were amazing and contributed to the quick sale. We couldn’t say more about the professionalism and ease with which we sold our house.” Steve Caniglia // Like any good Italian kid, Caniglia is loyal to his mom – which is why he joined her Shelly Caniglia real estate group in 2004, helping drive lifetime sales north of $600 million. “Steve is incredible to work with and brings such a high level of industry knowledge and expertise to the process,” says one client. Trevor Halpern // North&Co.’s No. 1 independent agent for two consecutive years is also the CEO of Halpern Residential Group and holds a law degree from Arizona State University. “We worked with Trevor to buy our first home and I would rate the experience 6/5 stars if I could,” one client says. To curate this list of the Valley’s top residential real estate agents, Phoenix Magazin surveyed 25,000 subscribers for their opinions on agents who helped them buy or sell a home – or both – over the past 20 years. Grading the agents in five different practice areas, from closing skills to design knowledge, the respondents also offered written testimonials on the agents in question, many of which are included below. PHOENIX editors evaluated the surveys, added our own candidates to fully represent the geographic and cultural sweep of the Valley, and created a final list. To help you find the right agent, we’ve included the neighborhoods where the agents respectively tend to specialize, but these are only examples. Most agents will work anywhere in the Valley.
