These companies are able to offer their services free of upfront charge due to the quality of agent they work with. Throughout the entire process they require agents keep them updated on the status of the client, etc. If an agent signed up with these companies doesn’t plan on following their rules along those lines they can be removed from the system. With them spending millions acquiring leads, these companies look to partner with agents with whom they can trust!
These services are excellent for agents who are new to the business, new to their area, or are just looking for a bump in business. The referral fee ranges from 20-35% so agents with a hefty split with their brokerage can see slim profits. If you are an agent who is apart of a 100% commission firm, companies like OpCity & the like are an excellent lead source!
