10 Reasons to Join Capstone Realty & Associates
- You Are Valued - Working closely together with a team of people who want you to succeed is inspiring. Input is valued from each agent and being in a close-knit environment creates a sense of unity and encouragement. A group of agents that collaborate and are willing to help each other by working together is irreplaceable.
- No Commission Rollbacks - Imagine working hard all year to get to a higher commission split only to be brought back down to your original split the following year. This is not always the case with every brokerage. Our commission splits are locked in once you reach the next tier.
- Quality over Quantity - Our firm focuses on providing quality service to their clients rather than focusing on the number of new leads to fill their pipeline. That means more dedication to you as a client.
- Established Brokers & Agents - Boutique firms generally employ highly seasoned and top producing agents who are client oriented. They have enough transactions under their belt that they are great at negotiating, problem solving, and getting deals closed.
- Innovation & Customization Happen more Fluidly - Agents at large firms often have contracts that restrict their ability to customize their services and make decisions without upper management approval. With a boutique firm you work with the owner and they’re able to customize their services to meet your needs and work with you to come up with creative solutions to any problem.
- Boutique Brokerage Cares more about the Rights of Buyers and Sellers than Building a Business Empire - At a boutique firm, building an interpersonal relationship with clients comes first, whereas large firms prioritize bulk business as a means to build their empire. Ultimately, the focus becomes about them, and not you.
- Your Transaction is always Overseen by your Broker/Agent - With a focus on customer satisfaction, your Broker/Agent will not hand you off to a coordinator so they can move on to their next client. Your Broker/Agent will handle your paperwork directly so nothing gets lost in the shuffle, and so you can be rest assured you are well represented throughout the entire process.
- Service to Customers - In a brokerage with hundreds of thousands of agents, one bad review won’t make or break your firm. For independent brokerages, every review counts and you can’t afford to make a mistake. As a result, independent brokerages tend to be more consistent in their commitment to serving sellers and buyers and ensuring their needs are put first. As an agent, associating yourself with a brand committed to excellence and personalized survival can help you quickly gain the trust of potential clients.
- Greater Perspective - Many members of an independent brokerage work on both sides of a reverse-flow program. On the other hand, Big Broker teams are more likely to work strictly on one side or the other. Understanding both sides lends us the context to see and sell the “big picture” benefits of these programs, whereas the individual pieces can often appear ill-fitting or inequitably priced.
- Flexibility - Many real estate agents confuse flexibility with not working. To have success in real estate, you have to be willing to put in the work. We don’t typically work 9 to 5 days. It’s usually work whenever someone wants to see a house and do the paperwork when no one else does.
