The recognition
RealTrends is one of the most recognized independent authorities in residential real estate. Its annual rankings are built on real production, not self-reported marketing, which is why agents and brokerages across the country treat them as a credible measure of who is actually performing.
For 2026, RealTrends Verified placed Ratowsky Group at Compass among the top-performing small real estate teams in California and nationwide, the top 1.5% in the nation. Out of the hundreds of thousands of agents and teams working in the United States, that puts this small father-and-son team in rare company.
It is a number we are proud of. It is also not the point. The point is what produces it: 900+ homes sold across 58 years on one stretch of coast, most of it repeat and referral business from people who came back or sent a friend.
Why it matters to you
The recognition is based on actual closed production. You are not trusting a slogan. You are looking at a third party confirming the track record.
This is the top 1.5% of small teams, which means two people give you the production of a large operation without handing you off to a junior. You work directly with Craig and Justin.
The volume behind the ranking was earned in Huntington Beach, Huntington Harbour, and coastal Orange County, the exact market where you are buying or selling.
