Live and Work in Chicago with Sonia Figueroa Great way to subtly gain people under you in the pretext of giving helpful information! Any question will be directed to call or e-mail you! 👏👏👏. I know the drill! I’ve been in every form of sales for a looooong time! All information should be accessible in the Cloud Brokerage! Independence is what we aim! Thus, carefully reading through all the info available should be independently accessible!

Hi Sonia, I've decided to leave my current broker for eXp Realty. But need to finish the local Realtors mandated two day classes to receive the title of Realtor. I've started the application process but had to pause until I get my licenses from current brokerage and give to state RE division to transfer to eXp Realty. How do I get a sponsor for my market and complete the application process? Please advise.

Hi Sonia, thank you for the video. I recently passed my exam and have my eyes on EXP. However, I'm in a higher-end market here in the suburbs of Seattle and I have never seen an EXP listing in this area. I'm concerned there just isn't any consumer name recognition compared to the local brokerages (at least not yet). Would you say this shouldn't be a concern of mine?
@SoniaFigueroaRE
@SoniaFigueroaRE 3 года назад
Personally the name of the brokerage really doesn't matter. It's YOU that matters and makes things happen. People deal with people not brokerage names. There are many small high end boutiques that do just fine in the luxury market. It's based on referrals in the long run.

When joining any brokerages, it’s so important to ask about the training, being mentored with the right agents who closes more transactions and what does the brokerage provide to agents when it comes to splitting your commission. Being a newbie, try to shadow an agent in the office if it allows. Watch Ricky Carruth videos which is free coaching..

All I want to know is--how do you buy/sell homes for clients? What am I missing? What is the purpose of recruiting agents if they are not wanting to actually do real estate transactions.
@SoniaFigueroaRE
@SoniaFigueroaRE 2 года назад
Most of my clients come from referrals. As far as recruiting I personally don't like recruiting for that exact reason. I want to make sure the person is genuinely wanting to help the public and not becuz it's a numbers game for monetary benefit.

Unfortunately because EXP is growing so fast they are having growing pains right now but I am sure as it gets bigger there will be more mentors in your area. I completely understand that as a new agent you want more 1-on-1 training hopefully there system gets better.

I actually joined exp as a new agent and I’m kind of regretting it. I went through two mentors already. Currently the firm is trying to find another for me but the mentors in exp Atleast in Colorado don’t want to put in the work to actually mentor a new agent. I usually get excuses like they are too busy or are mentoring too many and don’t have the capacity. 🙄 I’m thinking about leaving... I really was excited about joining but so far it has been disappointing... waste of time and money.

Hi I’m encountering the same thing basically. I feel that eXp is great for more experienced agents coming from traditional brokerages that tend to have more emphasis with hands on training. What are your thoughts on us temporarily leaving eXp to get more hands on training then go back (to what is actually a superior platform eXp) I’m currently investigating the health insurance plans that eXp has through Clearwater insurance. The health insurance was a huge selling point to me but soon I’ll know if we can get a similar deal on the insurance market. Have you thought much about the insurance aspect? Maybe you gave insurance through your spouse? Or job?
@SoniaFigueroaRE
@SoniaFigueroaRE 3 года назад
Sorry to hear that but I always let new agents know exp is not good for new agents so they have been getting experience somewhere else and then coming back since the technology is there at a lower cost. Do what you feel is best for you and your family.

Hola Sonia! Me encanto que empezaste con un hola. Creo que nosotros como agentes bilingues necesitamos mas videos en espanol en donde podemos crear estrategias y scripts para nuestro publico de habla hispana. Creo que somos un grupo que tiene mucho potencial y existen muchos clientes potenciales que podriamos ayudar, solo que no existe tanto material aun en redes sociales.

You know as good as any of us with eXp, we have no requirements as a sponsor to provide anything at all. Nothing. That being said, I provide coaching and a full plan to build a full, look tight business without paying for buyer leads. I go all in with my sponsees and love helping. It is however written in the independent contractor agreement that the sponsor is the most influential individual in their decision to join eXp

I have been in real estate for 20 years and I have never experienced such a bad taste for another brokerage. The exp agents I have dealt with on 3 of the markets I covered seem very detached from the business, inexperienced and rude. Furthermore, ever since they got a hold of my information from a transaction I did with one of the exp agents; they have been calling me non stop trying to recruit me and my team. There are days that I get up to 7 calls from different exp agent trying to book a recruiting me and my team to move over. Truly annoying. Why not just sell real estate, there is enough business to go around.
@SoniaFigueroaRE
@SoniaFigueroaRE 3 года назад
Totally agree with you, I don’t agree with there practices of recruiting every single day. But like everything one bad apple 🍎 spoils it for all and leaves a bad taste in your mouth. I enjoy there hands off management style and there technology but I have also been in business 16 years. I don’t recommend EXP for new agents.

Right, so it seems with most brokerages, transactional coordinator, in-house escrow, are part of the fees paid as an agent. Why does eXp leave that information out in the recruiting mission. The recruiting efforts seem to leave put so much pertinent information as it relates to the agents business it is scary.

Cool video. Wanted to add, all new agents have to submit an application to DBPR before they sit for their state exam. They clearly need to know how to log onto the site to make sure all of their information is correct and also when they are approved to take the exam. I hand hold all of my agents that I bring into my network, that being said- agents need to do the leg work for normal activities of a real estate professional. You can't do these things for them. Also, a sponsor is Not here to provide leads unless there is a normal team structure. I have never in my career or any eXp agent or brokers role as a 'Sponsor' that they provide leads. I provide and train them on how to build their own business if they need it. Some of these points are off-especially after hearing you're 15 years in the business. Still, Cool advice. I feel you are misleading agents into expecting something that isn't reality. A sponsor providing leads is unheard of, UNLESS they are a team leader.

This is the Only brokerage that actually adds Real value to their agents and broker associates. No other brokerage wants you to retire, that's why you haven't heard of agents ever retiring. They Don't. Here at eXp, we celebrate early retirements, EVERY DAY. Now, how is your sales business going?
