With real estate teams set to pave the way for the future of our industry, building them gives us an opportunity to not only expand our businesses, but create legacies for ourselves. The only problem is, many agents are unsure of what it takes to build a team from scratch. Where do aspiring leaders even begin? How can we build the kind of teams that help us make our mark on the industry, and what can we do to attract and retain top talent? In this episode, industry veteran and leader of The Cliff Freeman Group, Cliff Freeman shares how he built a successful team in just one year. Three Things We Learned From This Episode Why teams are the future of real estate: Individual agents simply don’t have access to the same resources as teams do, and that puts them at a grave disadvantage. Over the next few years, individual agents will be almost entirely pushed out of the market because they just won’t be able to compete. The importance of investing in our agents: Over 80% of agents exit the business after their first year, and that’s because they don’t receive the support they need. As team leaders, we can retain our agents and get a killer ROI by providing them with the right structure and systems. Why traditional brokerages are no longer valuable to agents: Once upon a time, brokers were at the center of the real estate equation because they provided agents with a wealth of information. In the age of the internet, accessing knowledge is easier than ever before, making the need for brokers almost entirely obsolete. Guest Bio: Cliff Freeman is the leader of The Cliff Freeman Group.
