Along the way I met a friend who was a broker for an REO company, and when it started to become clear there would be a market crash, I decided to switch into that side of the real estate business. I did that for 10 years or so. I decided to stop making REO my main focus and flex my skills at a bigger brokerage where I could work with a broader range of clients.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Why did you decide to join Redfin?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I worked with Redfin as a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/partner\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">partner agent<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for a little over a year. I always liked Redfin, but I didn\u2019t like the previous pay plan. Then I found out about <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/careers\/next\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Redfin Next<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. At first I wasn\u2019t sure about the splits, but I ran the numbers and saw that everything works out overall. You get to bring your own book of clients, and you earn more as you build your business. At my last brokerage I made slightly higher splits, but now I get a lot more for that money, like leads and team support. Overall, Redfin was just a better fit. Once I got here and I took the training, I thought \u201cThis is where I should have been since 2005.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What makes Redfin different from other brokerages?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I really appreciate the people and the diversity of the company. Every brokerage is about making money, but at Redfin it\u2019s about <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">everyone <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">making and saving money\u2013both customers and agents. That\u2019s the model I\u2019ve been trying to emulate for so long. I think the technology is great too, especially Agent Tools. Redfin\u2019s algorithms help you focus on the right clients at the right times, so you can spend more of your time with those who are making moves now. You can still nurture and keep those customers who may buy in 2-3 years without distracting your attention from people who are actively looking.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019ve also been impressed with the customer introductions I get from Redfin.com. I knew from my time as a Partner Agent that the leads were good quality, but as an employee agent I\u2019ve really been able to see how those leads can grow my business. Redfin gets you out there meeting people you wouldn\u2019t normally meet here on Long Island. Here, most agents\u2019 business comes from referral or word of mouth, or occasionally they\u2019ll see you on social media. The leads I get from Redfin are people hitting the \u201cshow me now\u201d button. Those are people you never would have met if not through Redfin. It\u2019s like a tree, it just spreads and grows: The more people you meet and talk to the more business you can do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What would you tell other agents who are thinking about joining Redfin?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I think a lot of people are uneducated about what Redfin can do for agents. The last month or so business has been good, and I\u2019ve gotten the chance to meet a lot of people from around the company. The help here is tremendous\u2013you can email anyone in this company and they\u2019ll help you, whether it\u2019s the IT team, the PR team, or your deal support staff. It does take things off your plate so you can invest time back in growing your business. As a traditional agent I paid for all kinds of services to try to help streamline my life as an agent, and they still didn\u2019t work as well as what you get at Redfin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Why should a buyer or seller choose to work with a Redfin agent?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We give you more for less. There\u2019s this notion that if you pay less, you\u2019ll get discounted service, but your Redfin agent is there with you every step of the way. We do everything &#8211; professional photos, all the listing prep, touring with you, keeping you updated on the local market, negotiating on your behalf. And if we\u2019re not available for any reason, someone from our support team is there for you. We charge a lower fee for sellers, and give back money to buyers through Sign &amp; Save. Every little bit of extra money counts when you\u2019re buying a home, and what other brokerage is going to give you something back?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Why should customers work with you specifically?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I think my background in REO is an asset to my customers because it helped me hone my communication and negotiation skills. I will always tell it like it is\u2013that\u2019s a value I\u2019ve seen reflected all around Redfin as well. I got into real estate because I like the challenge and the competition, which means I\u2019ll always fight for your best interests.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to take your real estate business to the next level?
