An alternative way to use your
real estate license in New York
Let's get to the point...
Why would an agent want to join
our referral brokerage?
There are lots of reasons! A few being:
You are a part-time agent. Many agents who work part-time simply do not find that it is worth it to pay their MLS association dues. They only sell a house or two a year, and would rather keep their license active with a referral brokerage rather than a traditional model.
You choose to only earn commission on referrals. Some agents choose to not actually work on any deals themselves, but they know many people looking to buy and/or sell. They would rather refer those people to another full time agent and simply earn a referral fee.
You are on hiatus. Let's face it, sometimes we all need a break. Hanging your license at our referral brokerage is the perfect solution. You don't need to pay any MLS association dues, but you can still keep your license active and should some business pop up you can switch to active status with Vintage American Realty or another brokerage of your choice (you'd have to pay pro-rated MLS dues and brokerage fees depending upon the brokerage you choose).
You are thinking of quitting real estate. Of course with the recent turn of events regarding buyer agency many agents are thinking about quitting. Things may work out better than it currently seems. Keeping your license active with Vintage American Referrals will accomplish two things 1. If things don't turn out as dire as it may seem now you can seamlessly jump back in. 2. If a deal does pop up you will still be a licensed real estate agent and can quickly activate your MLS membership and switch to an active brokerage role or refer out the opportunity and still make money.
You are a new agent with limited financial resources. This option can be ideal for new agents. It will let you get training and advice before incurring the heavy cost of MLS dues. Come to training, ask questions and when you are ready switch to an active agent role at our sister brokerage Vintage American Realty or any other brokerage of your choice. Or simply stay a referral agent forever and generate passive income, the choice is yours.
