Doubled income by breaking free from traditional constraints

For more than a decade, real estate agent Jarred Hancox found himself grappling with the constraints and pressures of traditional real estate agencies.

Over time, the rigid Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), mandatory meetings, and exhausting administrative burdens made him feel more like an employee than an independent contractor.

The restrictive commission structuresโ€”where franchise fees and 50/50 splits left him with a fraction of his hard-earned commissionsโ€”only compounded the frustration.

Determined to regain control over his career and ๏ฌnancial future, Jarred made the bold move to @realtyโ€”a decision that has since paid off tremendously.

Since joining @realty, Jarred has not only rediscovered his passion for real estate but has also managed to double his income.

The ๏ฌ‚exible work environment allows him to choose when, where, and how he works, eliminating the unnecessary pressures that once drained his enthusiasm.

A major game-changer has been @realtyโ€™s commission structure.

With higher commission splits and fewer deductions, Jarred is now taking home signi๏ฌcantly more of what he earns.

The ๏ฌnancial freedom this provides has been instrumental in revitalising his career.

Beyond the ๏ฌnancial bene๏ฌts, Jarred has also seen a dramatic boost in productivity, thanks to @realtyโ€™s cutting-edge software tools, automation features, and dedicated support teams.

Instead of drowning in admin work, he can now focus on what he does bestโ€”serving his clients and closing deals.

One of the standout features of @realty is its in-house marketing team, which has been a game-changer for Jarred.

Unlike his previous agency, where he had to pay extra for marketing support, @realty provides professional marketing design services at no additional cost.

Whether for property listings or personal branding, the marketing team has been an invaluable resource, always ready to assist and deliver top-quality content.

Another key advantage has been @realtyโ€™s social media team, which enhances the reach and visibility of his listings with ease.

Having an expert team manage his digital marketing allows him to focus on sales rather than spending time on promotional logistics.

Among the many tools at his disposal, Jarredโ€™s favourite is the Digital Listing Proposal feature within @realtyโ€™s CRM.

This powerful tool allows him to create tailored, visually captivating online presentations that showcase his unique selling points before even meeting potential clients.

The ability to choose from multiple templates and send proposals via email or SMSโ€”while receiving noti๏ฌcations when a client opens or accepts a proposalโ€”has given him a distinct competitive edge.

โ€œIf I want a really professional, sleek property proposal, Iโ€™ll use the digital listing proposal toolkit,โ€ Jarred shares.

โ€œIt creates a polished and summarised format that impresses potential vendors and sets me apart from competitors.โ€

One of the most surprising and rewarding aspects of joining @realty has been the exceptional support team.

Unlike many corporate environments where agents can feel like just another number, @realtyโ€™s team consistently makes Jarred feel valued and supported.

โ€œWhat Iโ€™ve noticed is that the support team always sounds happy to hear from us and eager to help however they can,โ€ he says.

โ€œThey make me feel important, which is crucial because the relationship between agents and support teams is a two-way street. We earn the money that helps run the business, and the head of๏ฌce team supports us in doing so.โ€

Despite not considering himself a โ€œbig playerโ€ in the industry, Jarred appreciates that @realty treats him with the same level of care and respect as top producers, reinforcing his decision to join.

Thanks to @realty, Jarred has found a renewed passion for his career.

He is no longer bogged down by unnecessary obligations, ๏ฌnancial constraints, or outdated agency structures.

Instead, he is thriving in a model that prioritizes agent success, ๏ฌnancial freedom, and work-life balance.

For other agents feeling trapped in traditional of๏ฌce environments, Jarredโ€™s story serves as a testament to whatโ€™s possible with the right brokerage.

@realty empowers agents to succeed on their own termsโ€”and that has made all the difference for him.
