How many real estate agents in Louisiana?
Count taken September 5, 2026Page built September 5, 2026
4,575 real estate agents in Louisiana had a published, current brokerage profile when we counted on September 5, 2026. That is 0.9% of the 493,081 agents counted across the United States, and ranks Louisiana 25th of 51 states and DC.
"Agent" on this page means a person with a live profile on a brokerage's website at the time of the count. It is not the number of licences Louisiana has issued, which is higher because many licensees are inactive or unaffiliated, and it is not REALTOR® association membership. The count covers 12 brands; see how the counting works for what is and is not included.

This is the first published count for Louisiana (September 2026). When the next count is taken, the change will appear here with both dates.
Largest real estate brokerages in Louisiana
The ten biggest real estate companies in Louisiana by number of agents with a published profile. A company that publishes no office names (Keller Williams, RE/MAX, Compass and others) appears as one row.
| Brokerage | Agents | Share of attributed agents | Brand | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Keller Williams | 1,140 | 24.9% | |
| 2 | Compass | 1,062 | 23.2% | |
| 3 | RE/MAX | 308 | 6.7% | |
| 4 | Real Broker | 307 | 6.7% | Real Brokerage |
| 5 | Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices | 268 | 5.9% | |
| 6 | HomeSmart | 198 | 4.3% | |
| 7 | Coldwell Banker TEC | 136 | 3.0% | Coldwell Banker |
| 8 | Coldwell Banker Group One Realty | 119 | 2.6% | Coldwell Banker |
| 9 | CENTURY 21 Elite | 101 | 2.2% | Century 21 |
| 10 | Coldwell Banker Apex, Realtors | 98 | 2.1% | Coldwell Banker |
By brand rather than company, Keller Williams has 1,140 (25%), Compass has 1,062 (23%), Coldwell Banker has 506 (11%), Century 21 has 497 (11%) and RE/MAX has 308 (7%). A brand's figure adds up every company operating under that name, so a franchise like Coldwell Banker or Century 21 is spread over many rows in the table above but appears once here.

Websites, phone numbers and email
Among the 3,513 Louisiana agents whose profiles we check for a personal website, 5.3% have a site of their own rather than a page on the brokerage's site. The national figure is 7.2%. 92.5% of the 4,575 checked agents publish a direct phone number (national: 90.7%). Every counted agent has a published email address, which is the inclusion rule. In Louisiana, 51% of those addresses are on a franchise domain, 14% on the agent's or the office's own domain, and 35% on free webmail such as Gmail or Yahoo. No address appears on this site.
Where the data comes from
The count is built from the public agent directories of 12 brokerage brands operating in Louisiana, led by Keller Williams, Compass, Coldwell Banker and Century 21. Brands that publish no directory, and independent brokerages outside those networks, are not counted, so the true number of working agents is higher than the figure on this page; the ranking of brokerages and cities is among the networks we can see.
The source is a per-agent contact file, the Louisiana realtor list at usrealtorlist.com; an agent is counted here only if that file holds a published, current email address for them, which keeps the count to working agents.
