The short answer: As of October 29, 2026, Neighborhood Registry has read the license record of every realtor ranked below at Texas Real Estate Commission and found each license Active. 9 realtors on the Irving service roster hold licenses we checked in October 2026; 7 are ranked here. One fact stated up front: no Irving realtor has claimed a Registry profile yet, so every name below sits in the License-Checked tier — licenses verified at the authority, profiles not yet maintained by the pros. The first Irving realtor to claim and verify a profile takes the top tier in the next edition, under the same published rules. Until then, this page is the only Irving realtor ranking that prints the license number and check date behind every name.

How this ranking works
Most “best realtors in Irving” lists are assembled from advertising placements and review counts copied from other websites. This ranking is assembled from exactly one thing: the license record at the issuing authority, read directly by Neighborhood Registry.
- Eligibility. A realtor is eligible only if we have read their record in the authority’s own system and found the license Active. No one can pay to be listed, apply for a rank, or be added by request.
- Tier A — Verified & Claimed. The license is verified at the authority and the pro has claimed their Registry profile, confirmed their details, and maintains it. Tier A always ranks above Tier B.
- Tier B — License-Checked. We have read the license at the authority and found it Active, but the pro has not yet claimed their profile.
- Order inside a tier is mechanical and published: (1) neighborhood seats held in Irving; (2) most recent authority check; (3) time on the Registry (first-verified date); (4) alphabetical. Every input to every score is printed in the entries above.
- Freshness. Licenses are re-checked weekly and formally re-verified every 12 months. A license that lapses or is suspended removes the pro from this ranking at the next re-check — not at the next edition. This page is re-issued monthly; this is the October 2026 edition, built from checks dated October 2026.
Full method: How We Verify — Every check is written to the public verification ledger.
How to verify a Texas realtor’s license
Use the Texas Real Estate Commission’s free License Holder Search at trec.texas.gov: search by name or license number and confirm the status reads Active. A Texas sales agent license number ends in -SA and a broker license in -BK; the sponsoring broker must also be Active for the agent to practice.
Irving, in numbers
- Population and housing (Irving city): Irving counted an estimated 257,076 people on July 1, 2025 (U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts V2025), up 0.1% from the April 1, 2020 Census count of 256,684 — a mature, essentially flat-growth inner suburb. The median value of owner-occupied housing units was $315,600 in 2020-2024, and the owner-occupied rate was 38.1% — Irving is a renter-majority city, with median gross rent of $1,619 (2020-2024).
- Schools: there is no single Irving district. Three districts serve Irving addresses — Irving ISD (most of the city) rated C, Coppell ISD (the northern Valley Ranch area) rated A, and Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD (the western edge) rated B (82) in the Texas Education Agency’s 2025 accountability ratings. Verify the district for a specific address with the district or on TEA’s TXschools.gov.
- Taxes (Tax Year 2026, per $100 of taxable value): for a city-limits parcel in Dallas County, the worked stack is Dallas County $0.248650 + Parkland Hospital District $0.212000 + Dallas College $0.106575 + City of Irving $0.589100 + the school district — $2.144725 in Irving ISD ($0.988400), $2.142025 in Coppell ISD ($0.985700), and $2.104425 in Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD ($0.948100), before any special district (Dallas Central Appraisal District TY2026 table). The Dallas County component is subject to a November 3, 2026 voter-approval election; if voters reject it, those totals fall to $2.120725, $2.118025, and $2.080425. Special districts are per-parcel — a parcel inside the Dallas County Utility & Reclamation District (Las Colinas area) adds $0.685657 — and a small Tarrant County sliver of the city carries Tarrant County entities instead, for which no stack is stated here.
- Realtor angle: the Coppell ISD / Valley Ranch pocket is the school-story listing in this city — an A-rated district (TEA 2025) operating campuses at Irving addresses, including Valley Ranch Elementary School, inside a city whose main district is C-rated; district and county must both be verified by address before any school claim is marketed.
- On this Registry: 9 realtors serving Irving hold licenses read at the authority in October 2026; the realtor seat is unclaimed.

How do I verify a Texas realtor’s license?
Use the Texas Real Estate Commission’s free License Holder Search at trec.texas.gov: search by name or license number and confirm the status reads Active. A Texas sales agent license number ends in -SA and a broker license in -BK; the sponsoring broker must also be Active for the agent to practice. Neighborhood Registry reads the same record and writes every check to its public verification ledger.
What does a buyer need in writing from a Irving realtor in 2026?
Since the August 2024 NAR settlement practice changes, a buyer working with an agent signs a written buyer agreement before touring homes, and compensation is negotiable and stated in that agreement — it is not set by law or by any multiple listing service. Every realtor on this page holds a TREC license Neighborhood Registry read and found Active in October 2026; the agreement conversation is separate from the license check, and both belong before the first tour.
What should a Irving homebuyer know about local taxes and schools?
Three districts serve Irving addresses in TEA’s 2025 ratings — Irving ISD, which covers most of the city, rated C, Coppell ISD in the northern Valley Ranch area rated A, and Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD on the western edge rated B (82) — so verify the district for a specific address with the district or on TEA’s TXschools.gov. For Tax Year 2026, a city-limits parcel in Dallas County stacks to $2.144725 per $100 in Irving ISD, $2.142025 in Coppell ISD, and $2.104425 in Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD, before any special district; the Dallas County component is subject to a voter-approval election on November 3, 2026, and if voters reject it those totals fall to $2.120725, $2.118025, and $2.080425. Confirm the entities and rates for a specific parcel with the Dallas Central Appraisal District.
