GRIT: The Real Estate Growth Mindset
Business
Convenience is everything in today’s real estate market. That’s why more and more brokerages and team owners today are moving into mortgage, title, home insurance, property management, etc. Not only does it make transactions a lot easier for consumers, but it also allows the team to have control over the entire customer experience, from pre-sale to closing and even beyond.
Another benefit of adopting ancillary businesses is its potential for additional revenue opportunities. And with commission compression affecting the industry nowadays, having a one-stop-shop that puts all these services under one roof can benefit not only the consumers but the real estate agents and broker-owners as well.
Brian Charlesworth joins Mark Pattison, Founder at PorchLight brokered by eXp, also considered as a leading-edge when it comes to branching out to real estate ancillary businesses, as they discuss the value of creating an “Amazon” for real estate and the importance of striving to always continue to grow and innovate.
