For agents who want to stay in real estate
without living in real estate.
Maybe you changed careers, moved, semi-retired, or simply don't want to carry the expense of practicing full time. Basement Realty gives eligible Florida sales associates a straightforward referral-only option.
No association burden
No NAR, Florida Realtors, local board or MLS membership is maintained through Basement Realty.
No transaction workload
You do not list, show, negotiate, lease or manage transactions. Your role is referral only.
No quotas or meetings
No desk hours, production quotas, mandatory sales meetings or monthly brokerage office fees.
Keep earning from your network
Send us the client. We place the referral with a qualified broker and manage the referral agreement.
Refer the client.
We handle the rest.
Basement Realty handles brokerage-to-brokerage placement and referral paperwork so you can remain a referral source without taking on transaction responsibilities.
Want to practice actively again later?
Basement Realty is affiliated with Imagine Realty LLC, our full-service Florida brokerage. If you decide you want to work directly with buyers and sellers again, you have a familiar path back to full-service real estate.
