The Berns Team | REAL TREND The Thousands Ranking

Serving with Heart

The Berns Team Named a RealTrends Verified Top Team by Sides and Volume

It’s not every day you get to celebrate a win that reflects more than just numbers. Today, we proudly congratulate The Berns Team—led by Jason and Laura Berns—for earning the distinction of RealTrends Verified Top Team by Sides and Volume in 2024. But this honor is about far more than sales metrics.

Keller Williams Pasadena Realtors believe the best real estate agents serve people first, and results follow. The Berns Team lives this truth every single day. Their success story is a testament to what happens when passion, innovation, and a heart for the community drive everything you do.

The RealTrends Honor: What It Means

RealTrends, in partnership with The Wall Street Journal, releases an annual ranking of America’s top real estate professionals through The Thousand list. This year, The Berns Team was recognized not only for their volume of transactions but also for the number of families they helped, earning them a Verified Top Team title in both categories.

Being included on this list is no small feat. It places The Berns Team among the most productive and client-trusted agents in the nation. Out of thousands of teams and brokerages across the U.S., this recognition proves that their approach is working—and resonating deeply with Southern California clients.

A People-First Approach

What sets The Berns Team apart isn’t just their numbers—it’s the way they reach them.

Jason and Laura have built their business on one simple belief: put the client first, and everything else follows. Every consultation, every open house, every marketing blitz is designed with one purpose in mind—helping individuals and families confidently take the next step in their real estate journey.

They don’t just show homes; they guide dreams. They don’t just close deals; they open new chapters.

Whether they’re working with a first-time buyer in Pasadena, a growing family upgrading in Altadena, or an investor listing a multi-million dollar estate in La Cañada Flintridge, the Berns Team delivers the same level of care, attention, and clarity. Their ability to listen, strategize, and overdeliver is what makes clients return and refer time and time again.

Innovation That Serves Clients

The Berns Team is widely known for their proprietary “10-Day Blitz” and “6-Day Blitz” strategies, marketing approaches designed to generate maximum exposure and competitive offers in a short amount of time.

These blitz campaigns aren’t gimmicks, they’re well-planned systems rooted in psychology, digital marketing, staging, photography, social media, and strategic pricing. All to help their clients sell faster and for more, without unnecessary stress.

What’s remarkable is that even with a polished system in place, every blitz is customized. Jason and Laura know that no two clients—and no two properties—are the same. Their team takes time to understand each seller’s goals, then executes a tailored plan to meet them.

This level of intentionality is rare in the real estate world, and exactly why they’re being recognized on a national stage.

Local Roots, Real Impact

Jason and Laura aren’t just agents—they’re proud members of the Southern California community. They live here, raise their family here, and have built lifelong relationships here. Their understanding of neighborhoods like Pasadena, La Cañada, Altadena, Glendale, and beyond goes far beyond market stats. It’s personal.

Their community-minded approach extends far beyond real estate. Through Berns Team Blessings, their nonprofit initiative, they’ve donated over $3 million to causes supporting local families, education, and emergency relief efforts. Whether it’s helping a family after a wildfire or supporting school programs, their commitment to giving back is unwavering.

This generosity doesn’t go unnoticed, and it speaks volumes about the kind of business they run. Real estate isn’t just about buildings. It’s about people. The Berns Team understands this on every level.

Leading Through Challenges

The past few years have presented major hurdles for the real estate industry: rising mortgage rates, limited inventory, shifting buyer expectations, and uncertainty in global markets. Many agents have had to pivot, adapt, and, in some cases, pause.

The Berns Team did more than adapt—they led.

They leaned into creativity, doubled down on client communication, and invested in tools that helped their clients make informed decisions. Rather than backing away from challenges, they embraced the opportunity to stand strong for their clients, offering a steady hand in a turbulent market.

It’s no coincidence that they thrived during this time. It’s the result of a team that is agile, proactive, and deeply committed to doing what’s right.



What This Means for Keller Williams Pasadena

As the Team Leader of Keller Williams Realty Pasadena, I’ve had the privilege of watching Jason and Laura not only grow their business but also uplift others along the way. They’re mentors, collaborators, and culture-carriers in our office.

Their success serves as an inspiration to agents at every stage of their careers. They prove that you can build a business with excellence and empathy. That you can be both results-driven and relationship-centered.

They remind us all that winning in this industry doesn’t mean outpacing others—it means out-serving expectations.

To Jason, Laura, and the entire Berns Team: Congratulations on this incredible achievement. You’ve earned this recognition through hard work, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to your clients.

Thank you for setting an example of what real estate should be. Thank you for serving Southern California with integrity. And thank you for choosing Keller Williams Pasadena as your home base—we are better because of you.

With gratitude,
