How to Join Real, agents must fill out a short application on reZEN and sign their Independent Contractor Agreement (ICA). Once that’s done they can work in any location with the support of a team leader. Work revolves around the Real Mobile app where agents perform CRM tasks, communicate with clients and access marketing & branding assets. National conference calls are held weekly to network with other agents and learn from top producers.

In addition to a very generous commission structure, REAL offers agents an impressive revenue share program. For every agent you directly attract to the brokerage, you get a portion of the $12,000 cap that they pay each year back. If that agent lists you as the reason they joined, then you get even more. This revenue sharing model is similar to the one Keller Williams and eXp Realty use to grow their teams.

REAL also rewards agents with equity in the company through the Real Academy program. This equity comes in the form of Restricted Stock Units which vest over a three-year period. This is a great way for agents to have a stake in the success of the brokerage and helps motivate them to be successful. Real has a close-knit community of agents all over the country who truly have each other’s best interests at heart. The brokerage’s culture is very supportive and a lot of fun!
