Top Realtors and Real Estate Agents in Bellevue, WA

The top-ranked agent in Bellevue, WA on EffectiveAgents is Mary Lee at Realogics Sotheby's International Realty, with 487 closed transactions and $391.8M in all-time sales volume. Rankings are determined by verified performance data rather than advertising, analyzing closed transactions, sale-to-list results, and client reviews across 1,156 local licensed agents. The methodology narrows the field to 97 ranked agents so buyers and sellers can compare measured track records. The best fit depends on your neighborhood and price point, so review several matched agents before deciding.

Rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data. We analyze more than fifteen performance signals for every agent, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results, price-point fit, and verified reviews. Agents cannot pay for placement.

Our data covers 1,156 real estate agents serving the Bellevue area. The count represents agents with transaction activity recorded in our Bellevue market data, not simply everyone holding a license.

Bellevue's median sale price is $1,400,000 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.

In Bellevue, the median home sells in about 15, though this reflects a +8 days change in market time year over year. Timeline depends heavily on pricing, condition, and location: with 59.2% of homes leaving the market within two weeks, accurately priced, move-in-ready listings still move fast, while overpriced homes join the 29.9% of listings that eventually reduce. Seasonality, mortgage rates near 6.58%, and current 4.2 months of supply also influence how quickly a specific property attracts an accepted offer.

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 Bellevue 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 Bellevue 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.
