After the broker verifies three coached transactions for an activity type, flat transaction pricing becomes available for that activity, subject to your brokerage agreement. Starting a different type of activity later may require a new series of coached transactions. Talk About Getting StartedSee How Pricing Works Grow on Your Terms Your experience counts. The broker reviews your documented prior experience for each type of brokerage activity to determine where flat transaction pricing applies.

Entering a new area of practice may require coached transactions, which use a 50/50 commission split instead of the flat fee. Estimate Your CostsTalk With Clever Personalized Coaching Independent Doesn’t Have to Mean Unsupported. Your goals, experience and challenges are personal. Your brokerage support should be, too. Clever Realtors offers personalized coaching for agents starting their careers and agents ready to grow. Step one Start with Your Goals Discuss where you are and what you want to accomplish. Step two Work Through Your Questions Explore guidance relevant to your current challenges. Step three Plan Your Next Step Identify practical priorities for moving your business forward. Coaching conversations are part of the general support Clever Realtors offers its agents. Separately, transactions that require coaching under TREC rules are handled jointly with the broker under a 50/50 commission split, as explained in the pricing section below. Meet Your Broker Hernan Romero Real Estate Broker, Clever Realtors Hernan Romero is the real estate broker behind Clever Realtors. He has served a full range of clients — from first-time homebuyers to investors and new-construction buyers — and works directly with Clever agents as their broker, focused on helping each agent take the next step in their business. Talk with Hernan Pricing A Clear Fee Structure. Support for Every Stage. Two arrangements, each applied by type of brokerage activity. Which one applies to a transaction depends on your documented experience in that activity. Eligible transactions Flat Brokerage Pricing $500 brokerage transaction fee per sale$200 brokerage transaction fee per leaseNo monthly brokerage feeNo annual brokerage feeE&O insurance includedAgent feature on the Clever Realtors website Applies to activities in which the broker has verified your required experience. Not every transaction automatically qualifies; terms are set in your brokerage agreement. Required coached transactions 50/50 Commission Split 50% broker · 50% agent For the first three transactions of each applicable new type of brokerage activity, the broker and agent work together. The commission is split 50% to the broker and 50% to the agent. This split replaces the flat sale or lease fee for that transaction — both never apply to the same transaction. You may qualify for flat pricing in one activity and still need coached transactions in another. The broker reviews your documented prior experience for each activity type; your experience is not automatically reset when you join Clever Realtors. Discuss the Details Clever Realtors operates virtually. Physical office space is not provided. Agent Experience, Coaching & Promotional Pricing Under TREC Rule §535.2(i)(5), agents must receive coaching and assistance from an experienced license holder competent in the activity the first three times they perform each new type of real estate brokerage activity. This applies by activity type, not merely to an agent’s first three transactions overall. At Clever Realtors, agents must consult with the broker before undertaking an activity subject to this requirement and may not handle it without the required coaching and assistance. For these qualifying transactions, the broker and agent work together under a 50/50 commission split: 50% to the broker and 50% to the agent. The advertised $500 sale fee or $200 lease fee does not apply; the commission split replaces the flat transaction fee. The commission calculation and treatment of any deductions must be documented in the agent’s written brokerage agreement before work begins. The 50/50 split is Clever Realtors’ compensation policy, not a fee required by TREC. Once the broker verifies completion of the three required coached transactions for that activity type, the agent becomes eligible for the advertised flat transaction pricing, subject to the brokerage agreement. Beginning a different type of brokerage activity may require a new series of coached transactions. Compare What Could a Different Brokerage Model Mean for You?

Frequently Asked Questions Is Clever Realtors a fit for new and experienced agents? Yes. New agents receive personalized coaching and broker involvement on their first transactions of each new activity type. Experienced agents can use flat transaction pricing for activities in which they qualify, with coaching when they enter a new area of practice. How does personalized coaching work? Coaching starts with a conversation about your goals, experience and current challenges, and focuses on practical next steps for your business. Coaching conversations are separate from coached transactions, which the broker and agent handle jointly under a 50/50 commission split. What does TREC require when I perform a new type of brokerage activity? Under TREC Rule §535.2(i)(5), agents must receive coaching and assistance from an experienced license holder competent in the activity the first three times they perform each new type of real estate brokerage activity. The requirement applies by activity type, not just to your first three transactions overall. How does Clever’s 50/50 arrangement work? For transactions that require coaching, the broker and agent work together and the commission is split 50% to the broker and 50% to the agent.

Experience in one activity does not automatically qualify you for another, and your experience is not automatically reset when you join Clever Realtors. What are the flat transaction fees?
