"We truly enjoy being part of Resident Realty. It's refreshing to be with a company that understands what agents actually need."
I have been in real estate for 20 yrs, my wife Tracie and I made the decision to join Resident Realty—and we couldn't be happier with that choice. We have been extremely happy with the culture, support, and flexibility at Resident Realty. Resident provides an environment where experienced agents are trusted to run their business their way, while still offering top-tier resources when needed. The brokerage operates with integrity and a genuine focus on agent success. We truly enjoy being part of Resident Realty. It's refreshing to be with a company that understands what agents actually need and empowers them to thrive. If you're an agent looking for a brokerage that offers real value without unnecessary hurdles, we highly recommend Resident Realty.

"I look back and wish I had phoned Craig two years earlier! I'll be with Resident through the remainder of my career!"
When the market was shifting, I knew I needed to make a change. The fees paid to my brokerage did not begin to equal the benefit I was receiving. I reached out to Craig Plantz, and knew before we ended our call that I would be switching to Resident Realty. The help hotline is available for support manned by managing brokers. I have found that helpful on more than one occasion. The systems are simple to navigate, transaction coordinating is available if needed, and the compensation I have retained is a game changer. I look back and wish I had phoned Craig two years earlier! I'll be with Resident through the remainder of my career!!

"It wasn't until I moved to Resident Realty that my business actually took off."
I love Resident Realty. I previously worked with three other agencies before coming to Resident Realty. It wasn't until I moved to Resident Realty that my business actually took off. I love that I can basically run my own business, set my own commissions with my clients and really do what I want to do with my business to be successful. There is always support when I need it and the monthly office fees and commission split is unbeatable. I also enjoy the fact that the agents at Resident Realty are NOT so competitive with each other. It seems all of our agents are always willing to help one another out.

"I came back to Resident Realty and within 1 month things exploded. I got 4 buyers under contract and 3 new listings!"
I was with Resident Realty for a little while thinking that the grass was greener with a Big Name Company. So I moved to a Big Name Company only to realize after about 2 years, that any success I had came from me and not being a part of a Big Name Company. I came back to Resident Realty and within 1 month things exploded. I got 4 buyers under contract and 3 new listings. It is just so awesome! Resident Realty provides all the tools and training that the Big Name Companies do, without the BIG FEES. Trust me it's a lot! I am happy to be back and part of a company that provides all the things I need and the support that I need to be successful in this market.

"I've been with Resident Realty for 5 years and am still impressed with Craig's service and leadership."
As a real estate agent for 10+ years, I have been with several firms. Admittedly I have high expectations of my broker and require solid, quick and reliable responses when the need arises. My clients look to me as the expert and my experience coupled with the support team at Resident Realty allows me to deliver premium service. Communication with our broker is rarely required 8a-5p M-F, but usually off hours and weekends! You will be impressed—I've been with Resident Realty for 5 years and am still impressed with Craig's service and leadership. Resident Realty is a smart, sensible choice for real estate agents desiring to increase their business and profitability.

"I cannot praise this business model enough. Why would you pay more to have so much less?"
I highly recommend Resident Realty. I started my career with another company, and although they preached constantly how they were here if you had any questions, during my first transaction I always got the feeling I was bothering them. Then at the end when I filled out my CDA I was so horrified that I gave more than half of my commission to the company that barely helped me. Since I've been at Resident Realty, I can get an answer anytime, day and night and have never felt incompetent or bothersome. They offered a fabulous step by step class on marketing myself. The fact that you feel like a family and everyone you speak to wants to help each other succeed for the pure pleasure of watching someone succeed—to me that's priceless.

"We get paid at the closing table! Craig empowers agents to be great."
There are so many reasons but first and foremost is the ability to conduct my business how I want without all the restrictions of popular Franchises and Brokers dictating the amount of commission to charge a client or which lock box system to use. The second consideration is Resident Realty does not nickle and dime their agents to death or charge huge office fees. In fact it is just the opposite. Craig empowers agents to be great by searching out the best marketing tools such as Call Capture Technology, agent websites, online management of transactions, training, local offices to meet Clients and so much more at no extra expense. Third and main consideration—We get Paid at the closing table!

"I love that I can operate my business so that it fits my needs and schedule."
I started with Resident Realty as a new agent. Right away I met great people, who really understand real estate and proved to be excellent mentors. I have looked at other real estate agencies and Resident Realty is definitely for me. I love that I can operate my business so that it fits my needs and schedule, yet have awesome resources available to me for questions and mentoring. I am so happy with my choice, and plan to remain at Resident Realty for years to come.

"The incredibly low fees at Resident Realty are unlike anything I have come across."
As a newly licensed agent, I did some research on other companies out there before I signed with Resident Realty. The monthly "desk" fee some of these companies charge astonishes me. Being new to the field the last thing I wanted was the added stress of completing enough transactions just to break even. The incredibly low fees at Resident Realty are unlike anything I have come across. This company clearly believes in the agent keeping their earnings. In addition, the individual assistance I have received from the owner as well as other associates in getting my career rolling has been invaluable. Look further into Resident Realty—you won't be disappointed!

"I've thought about starting my own company—but here someone else is doing the hard work."
I made the switch to Resident Realty after one of the managing brokers at my previous firm moved to Resident Realty. I trusted this managing broker's judgement and was very intrigued by the low fees. I work out of my house, which isn't particularly close to any of the Resident Realty offices, but the support from managing brokers is a phone call or email away. The network of Resident Realty agents is extremely responsive and helpful. I've thought about starting my own real estate company—but here someone else is doing the hard work of creating systems and processes that work well and make me look good, so I don't have to spend time/energy doing all of that—and I can still function independently! And the fees are low. It's a perfect combination.

"I'm happy to be with Resident Realty and highly recommend it to any agent."
I retired from the state of Colorado after 32 years. Since then I have worked for three different real estate companies. I have been with Resident Realty since December of 2015. What I like about Resident Realty is its people. They have been a tremendous asset. They are friendly, helpful, and they offer agents an excellent support system with fees that are lower than other companies. They offer outstanding services to agents as well. Resident Realty has a document training center, with contract training videos. They provide in house training for many skills. Resident Realty has a managing broker hotline that you can call with any of your real estate questions until 7 pm—7 days a week.

"Resident Realty is an excellent choice for agents who are self-driven and motivated!"
My husband and I work as a team, we are a younger couple and newer to the real estate business. We chose Resident Realty because the monthly/transaction fees for agents are extremely low, and the services and tools available to agents are great! Additionally, we were very impressed with the knowledge and availability of our Employing Broker, Tony. We have since found ourselves at an advantage in our transactions, because the information/knowledge we acquire working with Tony, often surpasses that of other agents we encounter. The website provided to us by Resident Realty is easy to operate and maintain. Resident Realty is an excellent choice for agents who are self-driven and motivated, with the tools they provide you will excel in this business!
