Is Koalet Properties the company for me?
To answer this question we first need to sort out some of the myths out there.
- Sellers don’t choose an agency or company.
Sellers choose an agent that they like and feel comfortable with. It doesn’t matter at what company you are working. You main success will be what you do and how you work. You will be the face of Koalet Properties in your area.
- Buyers choose houses not agents.
The agent with the best properties will have the best buyers and the most sales. ‘List hard, sell easy.’ You will hear this allot in your training and at our meetings. At the end of the day it will be your ability to generate leads that will determine if you will make a success of your career in the real estate market.
As you can see the agency wont make you money if you don’t work. Lets have a look at what Koalet properties offers you and what you should look for in an agency.
- Koalet properties doesn’t charge desk fees.
We don’t make money buy appointing agents. Koalet makes money if our agents make money. We don’t sell desk space we sell properties. It is the companies best interest to make sure our agents sells properties and make money.
- 50/50 Commision split.
You will find agencies offering you a better commission split.
Why does Koalet work on a 50/50 split?
At Koalet properties we cover the majority of the agents marketing costs. We also strive to handle most of the aftersales service. We want to keep our agents in the area and looking for there next sale. We don’t want our agents to get caught up in the admin of the loan process and the transfer process. Koalet Properties supplies our agents with dedicated bond originators and office staff to follow up on all the agents transactions.
At the end of the day the split should not be the deciding factor. You should look at what the top agents take home every month. A lot of agencies advertising attractive commission split will also have desk fees and marketing fees that you should keep in mind. Remember you will be working on commission so try to keep your monthly expenses as low as possible.
- Training
This should be the most important factor that you need to take into consideration when choosing and agency.
At Koalet Properties:
You will be trained by successful agents that walk the walk not just talk the talk.
You wont be trained by someone that just took a course or read a book.
We have been training agents for over 30 years.
Our training program is designed to get our agents earing money as soon as possible. You will start marketing from week one. You wont be sitting in an office be overwhelmed with studying.
This is the fastest way for you to learn and start to earn. You will feel like you are pushed into the deep end, don’t worry we will make sure you don’t drown while you learn to swim.
We also provide monthly training sessions where we cover any changes in the industry and where we keep our agents up to date with all the latest marketing strategies.
- Marketing strategies and technology
Lots of agencies will use new technologies of marketing strategies as a hook to catch new agents.
This can be beneficial should the technology or strategy be groundbreaking and change the industry as we know it. This however does not happen very often. You see these kinds of schemes and technology come and go a yearly basis, it very seldom work and there is no real replacement for the real estate agent as we know it. At Koalet properties we are constantly looking for new and innovative ways to market and keep up to date with the real estate industry. We however stay true to the tried and tested. By using the fundamentals of an active tried and tested marketing strategy we have a firm foundation from which we can build and grow in the industry.
- Company policies and co workers
It is important to look for an agency where you feel comfortable with the people you work with as they will be your main source of support especially for a new agent. If you don’t believe in the company and the companies vision you will basically be standing alone with no real source of support. At Koalet Properties we strive to create a environment where our agents can feel free to ask for guidance from any person working for the company. Our agents are allocated to specific and by working as a team with your neighboring agents you will have greater exposure and a bigger client pool. Team work is one of Koalet Properties biggest successes and will help you as a new agent to find your feet and establish yourself in the real estate market.
