You've got the house, someone else has the buyer.
Most agents already swap listings in a handful of WhatsApp groups, and most of what gets posted there is lost by the following morning. Here you send the listing to a circle of agents you trust, say up front what you'll pay whoever brings the buyer, and every introduction is kept on the record so nobody has to remember who said what.
Circles are your WhatsApp groups, done properly
Both sides of the same introduction.
You've got the house
- Send the listing to a circle, from WhatsApp, the web app or your CRM if it's connected.
- Say what you'll give the agent who brings the buyer, as a share of your fee, and the pound figure is worked out against the asking price.
- When someone in the circle has a buyer you'll hear about it, and the introduction sits on the record with the date and the agreed share.
You've got the buyer
- Listings from your circles turn up alongside your own, and the ones that suit your applicants are flagged to you.
- Open one and you've got the photos, the price, the share on offer and who's listing it, before you commit to anything.
- Say you have a buyer, pick the applicant and make the introduction, and both of you see it in your introductions with the date on it.
One referral, worked through
Isla lists 15 Hilltop Drive in Harrogate at £860,000 on a 1.3% fee, and sends it to her circle offering 30% of that fee to whoever brings the buyer. Tom, two towns over, has an applicant who's been after exactly that kind of house, so he says he has a buyer and makes the introduction. If it goes through, Tom's share comes to about £3,354, and both of them can see the date, the share and the status the whole way to completion. Isla and Tom are made-up names, but the sums are how it works.
What stays private
The circle sees the listing, the photos and the share on offer, and that's it. Your seller's phone number and email never go in, your buyer's name and contact details stay with you, and contact details only cross over once both agents have agreed the introduction.
The split is yours
The listing agent sets the share, it's shown as a percentage and a pound figure before anyone is introduced, and BrokerBroker doesn't take any of it. You can change it or pull the listing whenever you like.
