Ocean City, MD - Dave Whittington has been recognized as one of Maryland's top real estate agents for 2026, earning the RealTrends Verified Top Agent designation. The honor places him in the top one percent of all real estate professionals in the state.
Whittington achieved this ranking after closing 31 transactions totaling $16.20 million in sales volume over the past year. The award is based on verified data, including closed deals and total dollar volume, and is widely regarded as a benchmark for agent performance in the industry.
"I am grateful for the trust my clients have placed in me," Whittington said. "This recognition reflects the hard work of everyone involved in each transaction."
The RealTrends Verified program uses independent third-party verification to confirm agent production numbers. It aims to provide consumers with a reliable way to identify top-performing agents in their local markets. Whittington's focus on the Maryland market, particularly the Ocean City area, has helped him build a strong reputation for client service and local market knowledge.
The 2026 list includes agents from across the country, but only a small fraction achieve the top one percent status in their respective states. Whittington's inclusion highlights his consistent performance in a competitive real estate environment.
