Why Agents Join Embry Group: The Numbers Behind Huntsville's Top Real Estate Team

_{Embry Group at Crue Realty  |  Huntsville, AL}

If you're a real estate agent in North Alabama, you've probably wondered at some point whether you'd do better on a team. Maybe you're newly licensed and don't know where your first leads are coming from. Maybe you've been at it a few years and feel like you've hit a ceiling. Or maybe you're just tired of doing every part of the business by yourself.

We could tell you Embry Group is a great place to grow your career, but every brokerage says that. So here are the numbers instead.

Where Our Team Stands in 2026

As of late September 2026, here's what our 34 agents have done together:

• $200M+ in sales volume year to date
• 530 closed transactions year to date
• On pace for $276M+ in total volume for 2026
• On pace for 730+ transactions for the year

Divide that projected volume by our current team size and you get about $8.1 million in projected volume per agent for 2026.

How That Compares to the Typical REALTOR®

The National Association of REALTORS® 2026 Member Profile found that the typical individual REALTOR® completed 9 transaction sides in 2025, with $2.7 million in sales volume.

By the end of this year, our agents are on pace to average around 21 transactions and $8.1 million each. That's more than double the typical number of deals and about three times the volume. Our agents had already passed the $2.7 million mark by September, averaging roughly $5.9 million each.

(A quick note on how we counted: NAR counts "sides," meaning each buyer or seller an agent represents. Our numbers count total closed transactions, which include buyer deals, seller deals, and deals where our team represented both ends. If anything, that makes our comparison on the conservative side.)

Agents Aren't Just Joining. They're Staying.

Production is one thing. Whether people actually want to stay is another.

According to Courted's 2025 brokerage recruiting and retention report, 16% of agents nationally changed brokerages in 2025. That rate has stayed in roughly the same range every year since 2020, so agent turnover is a normal part of the industry.

At Embry Group, only 2 agents have left so far in 2026. When agents find a place where they're closing more deals and have real support behind them, they tend to stay.

What Makes the Difference

Those numbers don't come from agents working harder on their own. They come from the systems behind them:

• A steady lead pipeline. Agents aren't starting every month from zero wondering where the next client is coming from.
• Coaching and training. Business coaching and hands-on mentorship, whether you're in your first year or your fifteenth.
• Marketing support. Branded materials, campaigns, and content, so you're not also trying to be your own marketing department.
• Operations support. Transaction coordination and systems that take the paperwork off your plate so you can spend more time with clients.
• A team culture. People who pick up the phone when you have a question, celebrate your wins, and help you work through a tough deal.
