When people move to the Treasure Valley, one of the first questions they ask is simple: Who should I trust with this?
It’s a fair question. Idaho’s real estate market has exploded over the last decade, and with that growth has come an influx of agents — thousands of licensed professionals across Ada and Canyon counties. Some are exceptional. Most are average. A few stand out as genuinely elite.
This list identifies the top 15 individual real estate agents in the Treasure Valley for 2025. It was built using a hybrid framework of public production data, verified review counts, industry recognition, brand presence, and category-specific strengths. No one paid to be on this list.
Production does not automatically equal service quality. But production combined with consistent client feedback, brand positioning, and market longevity tells a more complete story.
How We Ranked These Agents
For this ranking, we evaluated individual agents and team leaders using publicly available information across multiple platforms. Criteria included:
- Transaction volume — Zillow-reported last 12 months and/or RealTrends Verified (prior calendar year)
- Review volume and rating — Google, Zillow, Realtor.com
- Market tenure — years active in the Treasure Valley
- Brand presence — website quality, social media, listing materials
- Industry recognition — BRR Circle of Excellence, RealTrends Verified, national rankings
- Local market expertise — depth in specific submarkets (luxury, relocation, new construction, etc.)
Where data sources differ in reporting windows, we note that clearly. Zillow typically reflects rolling last 12-month activity. RealTrends Verified often reflects the prior calendar year. Company-verified figures are labeled where used.
No agent or team paid to be included or excluded.
#1 — Brent Hanson, City of Trees Real Estate
Brent Hanson started in real estate in 2014 and by 2018 had become the #3 agent in Keller Williams globally — a metric that covers hundreds of thousands of agents worldwide. That kind of trajectory doesn’t happen without a system behind it.
Today, Brent is co-owner of City of Trees Real Estate alongside Chase Craig, one of the highest-producing teams in the Treasure Valley with 367 company-verified closed units in the last 12 months and over $2.5 billion in lifetime sales. But what separates Brent from a high-volume producer is how he thinks about the business.
Through Real Estate Growth Network (REGN), Brent and Chase built a coaching and training platform for real estate professionals nationwide — centered on the Momentum Operating System, a daily operating framework designed to move agents from average production to consistent, high-volume results. Industry average sits around 4 transactions per year. REGN agents average approximately 17.
The ability to build a system that produces results at scale — for your own team and for thousands of agents outside it — is a different category of skill than simply selling homes. That’s what earns Brent the top spot on this list.
City of Trees Real Estate is the highest five-star Google reviewed real estate team in the Treasure Valley, with 2,000+ reviews across platforms (company verified).
#2 — Matt Bauscher, Bauscher Real Estate (Amherst Madison)
Matt Bauscher is as close to a household name as real estate gets in Idaho. Bauscher Real Estate has been cited as the #1 selling real estate team in the state of Idaho for multiple consecutive years, with over $1 billion in total sales (Zillow-reported). RealTrends Verified shows 304 transactions — one of the highest verified individual-led team numbers in the market.
Matt’s reputation is built on negotiation and deal-making. He operates from Amherst Madison, one of the Treasure Valley’s most respected independent brokerages, and has built a team structure that functions more like a well-run business than a traditional agent operation.
For sellers in competitive price ranges, Bauscher Real Estate has a strong track record. Marketing attracts attention. Negotiation determines outcome. Matt has proven both.
#3 — Lysi Bishop, Lysi Bishop Real Estate (KW Boise)
Lysi Bishop has been active in Idaho real estate since 1994 — over 30 years in the same market. That kind of tenure isn’t just a bio fact. It means she has sold through multiple market cycles, interest rate swings, and the dramatic transformation of the Treasure Valley from a regional market to a nationally recognized destination.
Her team is synonymous with luxury in the North End Boise and Eagle luxury market corridors. RealTrends Verified shows 271.8 transactions. Her Zillow presence and Google reviews reflect a consistently high satisfaction rate across a high-volume client base.
Lysi’s strength is positioning. She understands how pricing, presentation, and timing interact at the luxury tier — where a wrong move in any direction costs the seller significantly.
#4 — Dawn Templeton, Templeton Real Estate Group
Dawn Templeton has built one of the most recognizable brands in the Treasure Valley over the better part of two decades. Templeton Real Estate Group has a stable, community-rooted identity that resonates particularly well with move-up buyers and families navigating the South Meridian and Eagle corridors.
FastExpert consistently ranks Dawn among the top agents in Boise. Her team earned BRR production recognition, and her Google review profile reflects a client base that refers actively. She brings a calm, process-driven approach to transactions — the kind that matters most when a deal gets complicated.
#5 — Morey Allaway, Finding 43 Real Estate
Morey Allaway is co-owner of Finding 43 Real Estate and one of the most decorated agents in the Treasure Valley. He holds Associate Broker status and has built a team with 293 Zillow-reported closings in the last 12 months — one of the highest volumes in the market for a named individual.
Morey’s Zillow presence is significant. He and Kat Allaway have been cited as top Zillow agents across Boise, Meridian, and Nampa, with strong review depth and consistent 5-star ratings. Finding 43 operates across the full breadth of the Treasure Valley, with particular strength in the Meridian and Nampa markets.
#6 — Michael Todd Miller, HomeFound Boise
Michael Todd Miller leads HomeFound Real Estate Group and was recognized as the Best Realtor in Boise for 2025. His team earned BRR Circle of Excellence recognition and has crossed the $100M+ in sales threshold with 200+ homes sold.
Miller’s marketing approach is personality-driven and social-first — he has built meaningful reach through relatable content and community presence in a way that many production-focused agents haven’t prioritized. His team is active in the Harris Ranch and North End Boise neighborhoods and has a growing presence in the Eagle luxury market.
Pricing without exposure is incomplete. Miller understands that.
#7 — Sheila Smith, Sheila Smith Real Estate Group (RE/MAX Capital City)
Sheila Smith is one of the most consistently recognized agents in the Treasure Valley. She holds BRR Circle of Excellence status, RealTrends Verified recognition, and appears in the top tier of FastExpert’s Boise rankings. Operating from RE/MAX Capital City, she brings independent brokerage credibility with national brand backing.
Her strength is transaction consistency. Sheila has maintained high-volume production across multiple market cycles, with strong client retention and referral rates reflected in her review profiles.
#8 — Matt Weston, Team Weston (Amherst Madison)
Matt Weston is a long-standing BRR Honor Society Lifetime member — a distinction that requires 10+ years of consistent top-producer status. That’s a meaningful bar in a market as competitive as the Treasure Valley.
Team Weston operates through Amherst Madison with RealTrends Verified recognition (108 transactions). His market depth spans Boise, Eagle, and the Star growth corridor. His reputation leans toward steady execution and transaction reliability over flashy positioning — which is exactly what certain clients need.
#9 — Stacey King & Manda Edge, King & Edge Real Estate (Compass)
King & Edge Real Estate brings Compass-backed branding to a local identity that is genuinely design-forward. Their listing presentation is among the most polished in the Treasure Valley — clean visual standards, lifestyle-focused materials, and cohesive brand execution from digital to print.
Stacey King and Manda Edge operate with a partner structure that allows for consistent client coverage across the Eagle and North End Boise markets. RealTrends Verified shows 64 transactions. Their BRR production award is consistent year over year.
#10 — Barbara Dopp, Agents With A Smile (KW Boise)
Barbara Dopp has earned her reputation the old-fashioned way — through client relationships built over years in the market. Agents With A Smile operates within KW Boise with a warmth-first positioning that translates to exceptional review depth.
Her Realtor.com and Google profiles reflect a high satisfaction rate among buyers navigating the Treasure Valley for the first time. For relocation clients moving to Boise from out of state, Barbara’s approach — thorough, patient, local-first — tends to resonate strongly.
#11 — Christina Moore Ward, Christina & Company (KW Boise)
Christina Moore Ward has built a relationship-centered brand with consistent listing presence across Ada County. Christina & Company operates from KW Boise with RealTrends Verified recognition (88 transactions) and BRR Honor Society standing.
Her positioning leans toward the client experience side of the equation — high responsiveness, detailed communication, smooth transaction management. Her review profiles consistently mention follow-through as a differentiator.
#12 — Kara Christian, City of Trees Real Estate
Kara Christian serves as Director of Sales at City of Trees Real Estate — a role that places her at the intersection of production and team leadership. She is a BRR production award recipient and brings multi-year experience navigating the Boise and Meridian markets.
Her client profile skews toward move-up buyers and sellers in the South Meridian and Boise core corridors. Her work within the COTRE system gives her access to the team’s full marketing infrastructure — photography, video, and strategic listing tools that individual agents at other firms often lack.
#13 — Rebekah McKernan, City of Trees Real Estate
Rebekah McKernan holds the VP of Sales title at City of Trees Real Estate and brings a background in mortgage — a combination that gives her an edge in structuring transactions where financing complexity is a factor. Her Zillow profile shows 43 sales in the last 12 months and 363 total career sales.
She is particularly strong with clients navigating the transaction financing side of a purchase — a skill set that becomes more valuable as rate environments shift and deal structures get creative.
#14 — Mariah May, City of Trees Real Estate
Mariah May has closed over $30 million in sales and brings a strategic mindset to a wide range of client types — first-time buyers, investors, and move-up sellers across the Treasure Valley. She is an Executive Sales Partner at City of Trees and operates within the team’s full marketing and systems infrastructure.
Her bio reflects a client-first orientation with particular strength in consultative selling — understanding the client’s full picture before recommending a path.
#15 — Tanya Robinson, City of Trees Real Estate
Tanya Robinson rounds out the list as one of City of Trees Real Estate’s active production agents. Her work spans multiple Treasure Valley submarkets and reflects the team’s systems-driven approach to consistent transaction execution.
Including four City of Trees agents in this list is a reflection of how the team is structured — not as a loose collection of agents sharing a brand, but as a performance organization with shared infrastructure, accountability, and coaching. The results show in consistent production across the agent roster.

Are these rankings sponsored? No. No agent or team paid to be included or excluded from this list.

What makes a top real estate agent in Boise? Production volume matters, but it’s not the only factor. The best agents combine consistent transaction volume with strong client satisfaction, market expertise, and reliable execution — especially when deals get complicated.
