Q: Where does Greystone Realty do buisness?

A: Currently we conduct business only in the state of Texas. We are members of 2 major metropolitan associations; Houston Association of Realtors (HAR) and Austin Board of Realtors (ABOR) as well as a few other local boards in the area. Our current roadmap is to expand into the Dallas and San Antonio markets next.

 

Q: Do you have an office location?

A: Nope! We are 100% cloud based for your flexibility and comfort! Work from home, out of state, on the beach, or out of the country all at your convenience.

 

Q: Do you offer revenue sharing?

A: We do! We have built a model that far exceeds our competitors and gives back more to the agents.

 

Q: I have a team of agents, can we join?

A: Absolutely! Our team structure is remarkably competitive compared to other brokerages. Be sure to view the presentation for additional information on team structures and compensation plans.

 

Q: What are the fees to join Greystone Realty?

A: We are proud to say that Greystone Realty doesn't charge any upfront onboarding fees for our agents and we keep our monthly fees to a minimum at $49 a month.

 

Q: Do I need to be a licensed real estate agent to join Greystone Realty?

A: Yes, you need to be licensed to join Greystone Realty as an agent. If you have any questions about the licensing process reach out to us at info@greystonerealty.com and we will point you in the right direction.

Q: Is Greystone Realty a good fit for new agents?

A: Absolutely! We encourage new agents to explore and compare different brokerages to see how Greystone Realty rivals to others. Nothing gives us a better thrill than seeing our newer agents become highly successful with what Greystone Realty teaches.

 

Q: Is Greystone Realty a good fit for experienced agents?

A: Most certainly! Not only will experienced agents save money and control their own destiny with our split and cap models, but we have multiple other benefits for them to take advantage of to better their business.

 

Q: What makes Greystone Realty different from other brokerages?

A: Agents control their own destiny when it comes to caps and splits, we charge low monthly fees, give agents the best in class technology, top training from industry leading real estate coaches, 100% cloud-based for flexibility and comfort, revenue sharing, and more! As you can see, we not only care about our agents, we invest in their growth. We want to help hold our agents accountable and give the best training possible so that they are guaranteed to succeed.

Q: What is the difference between the Capstone Model and the Stepping Stone Model?

A: Agents who are on the Capstone model receive everything Greystone Realty has to offer; Greystone Coaching, 24/7 on demand course library at Greystone University, revenue sharing, and all other agent benefits listed in the above sections. Agents on the Capstone model generally want to take their business to the next level, and being on the Stepping Stone flat fee model wouldn’t make sense for them.

 

The Stepping Stone flat fee model is geared more for the agents who don’t have a desire to grow their business and typically don’t close a considerable amount of transactions annually. Or simply put, they are content where they are. Agents on the Stepping Stone model do not have access to Greystone Coaching, revenue sharing, Greystone University, and the majority of what our company has to offer. They do, however, get access to the basic necessities of running a real estate business like a CRM, transaction management software, E&O insurance, etc.

Q: Can I change commission plans after joining?

A: Short answer: Yes.

 

Capstone Model: Agents on this plan can swap to the flat fee side (Stepping Stone Model) only on their anniversary date after joining. Minimum 1 week notice is required and agents who leave the Capstone Model forfeit the benefits in that plan such as Greystone Coaching, revenue share, access to Greystone University etc..

 

Stepping Stone Model: Agents in this plan can swap to the Capstone Model at ANY time to take full advantage of everything Greystone Realty has to offer.

 

One of the HUGE benefits of Greystone Realty's commission plan options, is that if you ever decide that you wanted to switch to a different commission model, you can do so without having to change brokerages and completely re-branding your business!

 

Q: May I negotiate with my client?

A: Yes. We will never tell our agents what commission to charge. We encourage our agents to set their own commission rates with their clients. Today’s real estate environment can be very competitive and our agents need the ability to be flexible.

Q: How am I paid for commissions earned?

A: Sale- A commission disbursement authorization (CDA) form will be sent to you detailing how commissions are to be disbursed after all of your documents have been reviewed and approved. You will receive a check/wire after funding directly from the title company.

 

Lease- Due to the nature of leases, the full lease commission will be paid to Greystone Realty and then your commission check will be cut to you.

 

Q: Do You provide leads?

A: Yes. Greystone Realty provides leads to agents in the Capstone model who are on the 70/30 split with a 16k cap. However, digital marketing is our strong suit and we highly encourage you or someone on your team to take advantage of Greystone University to learn how to generate your own leads through digital marketing. It’s easier and cheaper than you think!

 

Q: What kind of marketing material do you provide?

A: We have thousands of marketing materials designed and ready for your personal branding. From listing presentations, buyer's guides, seller's guides, social media posts and templates, newsletters, market updates, and access to a winning ads library to see exact ad copies.

 

Q: Are company meetings required?

A: No. But we do encourage you to join in when we do have them, typically through Zoom.

 

Q; Can I work part time?

A: Absolutely! Many of our agents are dual career agents.

Q: Is Greaystone Realty a HUD certified brokerage?

A: Yes!

 

Q: How soon can I start working with Greystone Realty?

A: Right away! Once your onboarding is complete (typically 24-48hrs) you are good to go!

 

Q: How do I move my license over to Greystone Realty?

A: It’s simple! We will send you an invite through TREC to join and you simply accept! Or you can search on the TREC website for the license number 9012072 and request sponsorship.
