Notes About Other Brokerages
Realty Austin / Compass
- Try to sell agents on their tech (Compass has own version of a client portal)
- Management is hard to reach
Keller Williams / eXp / Real
- MLM vibes
- Promote teams even if it doesn't make sense
- Team Lead makes all the money and those under them don't
Spyglass / JB Goodwin
- "Treat them like mushrooms. Feed them shit and keep them in the dark."
eXp / KW / Real
- MLM vibes
Douglas Elliman
- Culture likely isn't great
- Zero advanced tech
- Key advantage is they have a luxury look
Moreland Properties
Berkshire Hathaway
- Have heard from Jan Daum and Ashley Figur that the culture is very toxic and competitive
Place
- Bad culture, bad splits, bad set up
- Ben Kinney Team
- Really, really bad
For if an agent says their former brokerage is accusing them of poaching: "we don't have a recruiting bonus because were not a heavy recruiting brokerage."
