When embarking on a career in real estate, choosing the right brokerage is crucial for your success. Your firm serves as your support system, providing you with access to tools, resources, and guidance to help you navigate the industry and achieve your goals. With so many options available, it can be challenging to determine which brokerage is the best fit for you.Â
In this article, we will discuss the top 10 must-haves to look for when choosing a brokerage to ensure that you make the right decision for your career. From high-level listing and transaction support to a strong internet presence and a supportive team culture, we’ll cover each essential factor.
Real estate agents benefit greatly when they have access to a team of professionals who can assist with listing preparation and transaction coordination. At M&D Real Estate, we provide listing specialists and transaction coordinators (free of charge, for every transaction) to our agents to ensure that they have the support they need to succeed in their business.
A brokerage with a strong marketing team and resources helps you effectively promote your listings and build your personal brand. M&D Real Estate’s full in-house marketing team, for instance, creates customized agent posts every week, video for every listing, and sets ads featuring properties and agents – all paid for by the broker. The team works closely with our agents to create customized marketing materials that effectively promote their listings and personal brand.
Succeeding in the real estate business is all about having the right skills and knowledge to navigate the industry. That’s why comprehensive, regular training is essential for any real estate agent. At M&D Real Estate, we understand that training is critical to your success, which is why we provide our agents with a variety of training opportunities focused on making you a better agent and a top producer.
Our weekly training sessions are designed to help you stay up to date with the latest trends and strategies in the industry. We also understand that everyone learns differently, which is why we offer one-on-one coaching to our agents as well. Our experienced directors work with you to identify your goals, strengths and weaknesses and help you develop a personalized plan to achieve your target.
In addition, M&D offers brand-new agents the option to participate in our 8-week intensive L.E.A.P. program, where new agents learn to become 5-Star, Top Producing REALTORS. This program is led by M&D’s Top Producing Agents and covers all the important aspects of actually performing the duties of a top REALTOR.
At M&D Real Estate, we understand that having access to the right technology is crucial for any real estate agent to succeed in the industry. Our agents have access to the premier real estate custom relationship management system, KVCore CRM, which is paid for by the broker and managed by our in-house marketing team. Your database receives regular drip campaigns to keep you in front of them at all times, with high-level exciting content that positions you as the real estate expert. This powerful CRM also helps our agents manage their contacts, track leads, and stay on top of their sales pipeline.
Our agents also have access to Microsoft 365 Suite and DotLoop, a digital transaction management platform, to simplify the process of managing contracts and documents (which are all sent and managed by the transaction coordinators for you). Once again, this is all included in the split at no additional charge to you. Â Additionally, our internal intranet provides our agents with access to a vast library of video training resources that can be accessed at any time.
Establishing trust with clients is a crucial part of being a successful real estate agent. When you work with a brokerage that has a strong reputation for delivering high-quality services and support, it can give you a head start in building trust with your clients. M&D Real Estate is known as a high-quality firm with stellar marketing and branding, and our reputation makes it easier for our agents to establish credibility with their clients.
Your website serves as your online presence and provides potential clients with a way to learn more about you and your business – and for you to collect leads and new busines.
At M&D Real Estate, we understand the importance of having an attractive and professional website, which is why we provide each of our agents with their own personal website.
Our websites are designed to effectively promote your brand and listings – and attract new business directly to you. Each website is customized to match the agent’s branding and includes all the necessary information, such as contact information and a bio, ability to search properties, set up search alerts and even get a custom home value.
At M&D Real Estate, we understand the importance of having a strong internet presence and invest heavily in our online marketing efforts to ensure our agents have access to the best tools and resources to help them succeed. One of the ways we help our agents establish a strong internet presence is through our focus on search engine optimization (SEO). We also run paid social media and Google ads to attract new leads and promote the agent and their listings.
A supportive team culture can help you feel more connected to your colleagues and work more effectively as an individual and a team. At M&D Real Estate, we have a strong team culture that emphasizes collaboration, support, and community involvement. Team members collaborate and help each other out often. The team also regularly gets together for company outings and service projects.
A brokerage with a good reputation can help you establish credibility and build trust with your clients. You want to work for a company that has a positive image and reputation in the industry. At M&D Real Estate, we have all 5-star reviews on Google and Facebook, which speaks to the high-quality services and support we provide.
M&D Real Estate provides its agents with the option of using a desk/office space provided by the company at no additional charge in the areas where they operate. This allows agents to have a professional workspace and to meet with clients in a comfortable setting.
Moreover, having access to office space can also facilitate collaboration and communication between agents. At M&D Real Estate, our agents work as a team and are always willing to help each other out. With a shared workspace, agents can easily bounce ideas off one another, ask for advice, and receive support from their colleagues.
