Why You Should Join a Real Estate Team

Why You Should Join a Real Estate Team

One of the most important choices you must make as a newly-licensed agent is whether to work solo or alongside a team. There are benefits to both sides of this coin for new agents and even experienced ones. Keep reading to discover why you should consider joining a team as a new or experienced agent today.

Learn From and Network with Your Peers

For inexperienced agents, having mentorship is crucial to becoming familiar with the industry. You could always jump into the field solo, but being part of a team is a surefire way to gain industry knowledge and hands-on experience. With your team, you can expect regular training, sales meetings, additional support, and coaching. By working with a team leader and other members of your group, you will collaborate with your peers on a daily basis and learn from their experiences. Hearing about how other agents handled these situations and their success stories can help your personal development tremendously.

Quality Leads

Some teams have a robust lead generation system or a steady stream of referrals and repeat clients to get you off the ground running right away. If you are a newer agent with no marketing budget or have a limited network in the area, working with the supplied leads from your team will help you start selling homes more quickly. It can take up to 6 months for most new agents to get profitable in real estate! 

Support and Tools

Many teams offer a closing coordinator to help you and your clients through the Contract to Close Process. They also give you access to a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) tool to help you manage your leads. You’ll have access to reach out to your fellow team members for help if you aren’t able to make it to a client appointment. Working with a team means you have each other's backs and are unanimously working toward one common objective. 

Keeps You on Track

While working alone allows you more control of your time, it also gives you the chance to mismanage your time. Working with a team often means more structure to your daily schedule including team meetings and training as well as direction on time blocking and managing your day as an agent. You will be accountable to your team leader and teammates- which can push you to work harder and be more productive. 

Experienced Agents

Established agents can benefit from being part of a team as well. A team can help an established agent increase productivity by providing support staff, leads, accountability, and help when an agent is sick or on vacation. Many agents feel they never got the right support either from their brokerage or team, and you can always brush up by joining an experienced and active team such as the Brent Germany Team to gain those skills to be a hyper-successful REALTOR®️.

Final Thoughts

Joining a real estate team can be an excellent opportunity for new and experienced agents alike. It allows you to benefit from the knowledge and experience of other agents while building your own career and business. With the right team, most agents will find themselves on the path to a successful career! If you are interested in joining a real estate team, get in touch with us today.
