Our data covers 10,858 real estate agents serving the Philadelphia area. The count represents agents with transaction activity recorded in our Philadelphia market data, not simply everyone holding a license.

Philadelphia's median sale price is $295,000 as of May 2026. Half of recent sales closed above that figure and half below. It is a useful baseline for understanding the market, but an experienced local agent will price your home against comparable recent sales in your neighborhood, not the citywide median.

The median home in Philadelphia currently takes 47 days to sell, reflecting a +4 days change from a year ago as the market has cooled from its earlier pace. Actual timelines vary widely: 39.1% of homes leave the market within two weeks, while listings that require a price cut (currently 31.5% of the market) can sit far longer. Pricing accuracy at launch, condition, and neighborhood demand are the biggest factors. Homes priced to the local comps and presented well consistently outperform the median timeline.

No. EffectiveAgents is free for home buyers and sellers, with no obligation to work with any agent we match you with.

No. Agents cannot pay for placement anywhere in these rankings. Positions are earned from verified transaction performance only.

Commissions are negotiable and vary by agent, service level, and transaction. There is no set rate, and recent industry changes have made commission structures more flexible than ever. Discuss the structure directly with your agent before signing a listing or buyer agreement.

The individual agent matters more than the brand on the sign. Offices within the same national franchise vary widely in performance, and the agent you hire, not the logo, prices your home, negotiates your contract, and manages your closing. A strong local agent brings firsthand knowledge of Philadelphia neighborhoods, pricing patterns, and buyer activity. Compare agents on verified local results such as recent sales, days on market, and negotiation outcomes rather than name recognition.

Ask how many homes they have closed in Philadelphia in the past year, what their average sale-to-list ratio is, and how much of their business is in your neighborhood and price range. Ask how they will market your home or find you listings, and how often they will communicate. Strong agents answer with specifics. Verified transaction data is the fastest way to confirm what you hear.
