    How Agents Can Earn Passive Income Through Referrals

    The Opportunity

    Every licensed agent has clients who move, invest out of state, or need expertise in a market they don't serve. Instead of losing that relationship — and that commission — you can refer the client to a trusted agent and earn an industry-standard referral fee at closing. No extra work. No liability. Just income.

    How Referrals Work

    The standard referral fee is 25% of the receiving agent's gross commission, paid at closing and documented in a formal referral agreement. You submit the referral, we match your client to the right local agent, and you receive your fee after closing — often weeks or months later with zero additional effort.

    Who Qualifies

    Any licensed real estate agent or broker — active, part-time, or even referral-only license holders — can participate. If you hold an active license in any U.S. state, you can legally refer clients and earn a fee. Our network covers Connecticut and Massachusetts with expanding coverage throughout New England.

    Getting Started

    Submit a referral through our agents page in under 2 minutes. You'll need your license number, your client's basic info, and a brief description of their situation. We handle the matching, the connection, and the formal agreement. You get paid at closing.
