Why isn’t Agent Invitation free to consumers? Why don’t you just charge the agents?

Category: Frequently Asked Questions

There are many companies that offer consumers “free” services and then sell your information to others. Often the information is sent as a sales lead to agents in exchange for a monthly fee, a portion of the agent’s commission on closing (25 to 35 percent in some cases), or both. Agents have to recover their costs in the fees they charge.

Your paying for the service sends an important signal to the agents. It shows them that you are a real prospective client that is serious about engaging their services-not just someone browsing the Internet.
