Founder and CEO Avery Carl attributes the ranking to a decentralized network of over 75 agents operating across 20 distinct markets. Unlike traditional brokerages that handle general residential sales, this team focuses solely on investors purchasing properties for platforms like Airbnb and VRBO. The firm provides a comprehensive ecosystem, including market selection, financing strategies, and educational resources through its Short Term Shop Plus program.

To date, the organization has facilitated the purchase of nearly $4 billion in real estate for more than 5,000 investors. This volume of activity, paired with over 1,100 five-star Google reviews, has cemented the group’s reputation in a sector previously dominated by conventional real estate firms. Beyond the RealTrends recognition, the company has earned spots on the Wall Street Journal and HousingWire top team lists, while Carl has authored two best-selling books focused on the mechanics of vacation rental wealth.
