Refer the client. Let another agent handle the deal.
Friends, family, and past clients may still turn to you when they need an agent, even if you are taking a break from selling. Keep the ability to turn those introductions into referral income.
You connect the client with another agent through a broker-to-broker referral agreement. That agent handles the transaction. When the transaction closes and the referral fee is paid, you receive your share through our brokerage under your referral agreement.
The passive-income appeal: you can earn from the introduction without managing the showings, negotiations, and day-to-day transaction work. Income depends on completed referrals; it is not guaranteed.
