Best License-Verified Realtors in Richardson, Texas (October 2026)

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. 6 realtors on the Richardson service roster hold licenses we checked in October 2026; 6 are ranked here. One fact stated up front: no Richardson 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 Richardson 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 Richardson realtor ranking that prints the license number and check date behind every name.

How this ranking works

Most “best realtors in Richardson” 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 Richardson; (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.

Richardson, in numbers

Population and housing (Richardson city): Richardson counted an estimated 118,542 people on July 1, 2025 (U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts V2025), down 0.8% from the April 1, 2020 Census count of 119,469 — a built-out inner suburb. The median value of owner-occupied housing units was $431,400 in 2020-2024, the highest median value in this Dallas County cluster, and the owner-occupied rate was 50.7% — an almost even owner/renter split, with median gross rent of $1,857 (2020-2024).
Schools: there is no single Richardson district — the district follows the county line. Richardson ISD serves the Dallas County portion and rated C (79), and Plano ISD serves the Collin County portion and rated B 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): the City of Richardson rate is $0.542180 in both counties. A Dallas County city-limits parcel in Richardson ISD stacks Dallas County $0.248650 + Parkland Hospital District $0.212000 + Dallas College $0.106575 + City of Richardson $0.542180 + Richardson ISD $1.131900 = $2.241305; the Dallas County component is subject to a November 3, 2026 voter-approval election, and if voters reject it that total falls to $2.217305. A Collin County parcel in Plano ISD stacks City of Richardson $0.542180 + Collin County $0.151414 + Collin College $0.081220 + Plano ISD $1.032750 = $1.807564 (Collin stack carried by citation to the Plano fact build) — a county-side spread of $0.433741 across one city limit. Special districts, where they apply, are per-parcel; confirm a specific parcel with its county appraisal district (DCAD or Collin Central Appraisal District).
Realtor angle: the same county line flips the school story — C-rated (79) Richardson ISD on the Dallas side, B-rated Plano ISD on the Collin side — so two otherwise similar Richardson listings can sit in different districts and different appraisal districts; verify district, county, and appraisal district by address before marketing any school claim.
On this Registry: 6 realtors serving Richardson hold licenses read at the authority in October 2026; the realtor seat is unclaimed.

How do I verify a Texas realtor’s license?

What does a buyer need in writing from a Richardson 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 Richardson homebuyer know about local taxes and schools?

Richardson’s district follows its county line in TEA’s 2025 ratings — Dallas County addresses are served by Richardson ISD, rated C (79), and Collin County addresses by Plano ISD, rated B — so verify the district, county, and appraisal district for a specific address on TEA’s TXschools.gov. For Tax Year 2026, a Dallas County city-limits parcel in Richardson ISD stacks to $2.241305 per $100, with the Dallas County component subject to the November 3, 2026 voter-approval election (if rejected, the stack is $2.217305), while a Collin County parcel in Plano ISD stacks to $1.807564 per $100 — a $0.433741-per-$100 spread across one city limit. Confirm a specific parcel with its county appraisal district (DCAD or Collin Central Appraisal District).
