Comparisons can be tough when you compare the 2017 ProSales 100's performance with what previous groups did over the PS100's 25-year history. But by several measures, the 2017 group's performance looks to be the best ever.
The $49.36 billion in total sales for 2016 is the biggest number ever in nominal terms, though after adjusting for inflation the 2005 and 2006 numbers are a bit better. But a decade ago we had 2.1 million new-home starts in a year; in 2016, it was about 1.1 million. In terms of real revenue per start, the 2017 ProSales 100 dealers were 64% more efficient, and in real revenue per employee, 2017's group was 15% better than how dealers did in 2005.
