WRT simplifies your move by guiding you every step of the way, including:

• Strategic Move Planning: Secure your database and copy proprietary content (bio, testimonials, etc.) before you notify your principal broker and move your license.

• License Transfer: Once you authorize the transfer, your WRT Managing Principal Broker will move your license on the day and time you specify. You and your former broker don’t have to do a thing.

• Desk Fees: If you’ve paid your fee for the year, we consider that when determining contract terms.

• Onboarding Assistance: Dedicated onboarding staff and your Managing Principal Broker will guide you through each step – from initial paperwork to listings transfer, systems set up, business cards, signs, and marketing so you and your business hit the ground running and don’t miss a beat.

We arm our agents with the latest marketing tools and tech. From powerful digital platforms to advanced analytics, we give agents everything they need to thrive. See Marketing & Technology for all the details. Here are some highlights:

• Tech Suite: Windermere has combined our marketing, technology, and education tools into one comprehensive package powered by industry-leading technology partners. It is designed to help our agents increase efficiency and grow their businesses. Support staff are trained to streamline your set-up for all real estate needs, office systems, and marketing.

• Dual-Licensed: No Problem. WRT partners with Windermere Northwest Living to provide dual licensing in Washington. We’ll make an introduction to start the process.

• Luxury Marketing Programs: Premier Properties, W Collection, and Equestrian Living extend advertising and marketing reach by association with Leading Real Estate Companies of the World, List Globally, and Luxury Portfolio International.

• Adwerx Digital Advertising: Turnkey, branded digital advertising templates for yourself or your listing. Ads are displayed on top sites like USA Today, CNN, Facebook, ESPN, and more to ensure that your ads are seen by people who matter.

WRT meets you where you are, providing a spectrum of transaction support from basic (included) up to a full-service Transaction Coordination Program with concierge-level support (competitively priced). Our experienced TCs also stand ready to help move transactions from your previous brokerage to Windermere Realty Trust.

• Transactions in Closing: A move should not delay commission checks. Before you move to WRT, we’ll determine your contract year with your former brokerage and help you strategize the best timing.

• Active Transactions: If an offer has already been accepted, we can advise you on how to proceed. If you are working with relocation clients, they typically stay with your former brokerage.

• Current & Upcoming Listings: Talk to your listing clients about your move and explain that their listing will be with Windermere Realty Trust. Have your sellers sign a Cancellation of Listing Addendum, then re-list with WRT.

Windermere understands the challenges of moving to a new area and prides itself on reducing the stress. We have a fully staffed regional relocation service center. Whether supporting clients’ moves out of the area or welcoming transplants, we find the right agent match with an 89% close rate.
