Hi Tom –

Thanks for the comment. We have affiliate partnerships with come providers in the real estate space, but our editorial team is completely independent from those relationships. Basically, there’s nobody telling me what and who I should be “pushing”, I base those decisions off my own experiences with their products.

Hi Heather –

Absolutely, you can take your classes remotely from anywhere.

Chris

Hi Ron –

I would say LionDesk or Elevate are likely going to be your best bet here.

Good luck!

Hi Phil –

I am not an accountant, so PLEASE don’t consider this official financial or tax advice.

As far as I know, there is no differentiation between “active” and “passive” income, so I believe it would be reported just as standard income. Again, you are best to speak to a tax professional about this.

Good luck!

Chris

Hi Marie –

It doesn’t look like Kansas or Missouri offer reciprocity with South Carolina, so you’ll need to go through the licensing process again.

Good luck!

Hi Steve –

Thanks for the question. Unfortunately, I don’t have a clear-cut answer. In my experience, contracts that are left ambiguous are open to so much interpretation that it isn’t actually a good idea to try and think through the “typical” scenario. If the contract doesn’t specify, you need to either draft an amendment to clarify, or put a verbal agreement in place with the agreeing party.

Good luck!

Chris

Hi Caroline –

Thanks for the question. Unfortunately, I don’t have a clear-cut answer for you. The fact that there is no date doesn’t mean there is no expiration, but it leaves the expiration open to interpretation as to what would be considered “reasonable and expected”. If I were you, I would consider drafting an amendment to the referral contract with an expiration date.

Good luck!

Chris

Hi Chris –

That isn’t an event I’m familiar with, but definitely one I will check out!

Chris

Hi Rod –

That isn’t a company that I have any personal experience with, but I will certainly add them to my list of options to check out!

Hi Stephanie –

Thanks for the question. Yes. you can set up referral agreements with whomever you choose. Remember that these are agreements, so the other party has to agree to your terms (just like any contract), but as a licensed broker, you can create referral agreements with other brokers anywhere in the US.
