Those LOs worked with **34,951 buy-side real estate agents**. Out of **870,996 agents who completed at least one buy-side transaction in 2025**, that represents roughly **4% of the active agent population**. **What the Data Suggests** At a national level, this is a **modest shift**. But the more useful takeaway isn’t the percentage — it’s the **type of relationships impacted**. These 34,951 agents were: This isn’t theoretical capacity. It’s **recent, proven transaction connectivity**. **Interpreting the Movement** LO attrition is a constant in this industry. What this dataset shows is the **current scale and reach** of that movement. A few things stand out: **Why This Matters** For lenders and operators, this type of data is less about headline impact and more about **incremental opportunity**. A ~4% shift won’t change the market. But it can: **Bottom Line** This isn’t a structural change. It’s a **measurable reallocation of active relationships** happening in real time. And like most things in this market, the advantage goes to those who can **see it clearly — and act on it early**. ### Upcoming RETR Training - Mon, Mar 23 @ 2p ET - Intro to RETR: The Modern Loan Officer’s Data Advantage [Register](https://intro.retr.com/) *An overview of the many tools available to you in RETR – from agent and LO research, to list building and bulk contact exports, and borrower retention and refi finder tools, and more!* - **Wed, Mar 25 @ 1 ET - How to Win Realtor Relationships with RETR **[**Register**](https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/VQ85aZf-SziE_uWAZEvPgQ)** ***Stop guessing and start building relationships with context.
