"Attracting top-producing agents to your real estate team isn't all about having low splits or the promise of unlimited leads. The agents you truly want self-starters with a proven track record are looking for more than just a paycheck. They're seeking alignment, leadership, and leverage that proves your model will truly benefit their business. If you want to build a powerhouse team, you must position yourself as a leader worth following and create an environment that helps high performers thrive."
"Experienced agents are often bogged down with non-revenue-producing tasks. When you show them how your team provides leverage transaction coordinators, marketing support, listing prep, lead generation they see opportunity. But the more you demand, the more you need to give in return. Top producers want autonomy with systems that support them, not policies that stifle them. Show how your operations empower rather than simply control."
"Every team leader says they offer great support, amazing culture, and tons of leads. Back it up. Share real stories of agents who joined your team and scaled their income or improved their work-life balance. Offer testimonials, before-and-after production stats, and concrete examples of what life on your team looks like. Social proof wins more trust than slogans ever will."
Top-producing agents prioritize alignment with mission, leadership credibility, and operational leverage over simple financial incentives. Clear, compelling vision and defined culture attract high performers seeking purpose and impact. Teams must demonstrate concrete support—transaction coordinators, marketing, listing prep, and lead generation—to free agents from non-revenue work. Provide autonomy paired with reliable systems rather than restrictive policies. Validate claims with social proof: testimonials, before-and-after production stats, and examples of improved income and work-life balance. Invest intentionally in culture through team events, recognition, and peer mentorship to ensure agents want to be in business with the team.
