Smart realtors retire with lifelong passive income…

No! Active Sales Agents and Referral-only both use our services. We created a questionaire that asks the important questions to help you determine what the best fit for you is. At it’s core it depends on the level of involvement you wish to have during transactions. If you wise to advise during the transaction, stay active. If you truly want to be passive, go referral-only and save.

We earn from broker/team subscriptions and from referral fee splits with ClientHandoff Referral Agents. Because we serve as the LFRO for retiring agents.

Referral agents come from varied and unique backgrounds, but there are two things they all have in common: a desire to earn extra money doing something they love while cutting the cost of holding a real estate license!

We see everyone from industry veterans winding down their career to newly minted real estate agents choosing to become referral agents. It’s also a great option for anyone looking to keep one foot in the business while pursuing another career or interests.

We see successful referral agents from across the spectrum. A good fit will generally be an agent that is retiring, shifting to full time in another career or someone new to the industry that needs more time before jumping in with two feet. There are also many life-events that can make a transition to referral-only status a more appealing option.

Many brokers find that their agents who complete one or two transactions per year are also a better fit for a referral only role. These agents tend to require more oversight since they have fewer opportunities to keep their skills sharp.

Don't forget, every agent on your team is also available to you as a future potential recruit when they are ready to jump back into the business!

Typically, the referral fee is set by the market. An average referral is 25%. That said, we know every brokerage is unique, so please let us know if you have different requirements.
