Real estate agents and mortgage professionals work together as a cohesive team during the home buying process. Trust drives these interactions that transcend the transactional nature of many business dealings. The collaboration of agent and loan originator enhances each professional’s ability to help make their clients’ homeownership dreams come true.
The Motto Mortgage network presents a unique model for real estate agents and brokers seeking trustworthy and accessible mortgage professional connections. With many Motto Mortgage offices co-located with or near RE/MAX real estate brokerages, agent and loan originator collaboration has never been stronger.
Just before this year’s R4 convention, hosted by RE/MAX, Motto Franchising, LLC hosted their third annual Motto MILE at the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. Inspired by the unique opportunity to connect in one, vibrant location, RE/MAX real estate agents and Motto Mortgage loan originators shared why they value opportunities to work together.
What RE/MAX agents had to say about Motto colleagues
“I recommend loan originators in the local Motto Mortgage office to my clients because I believe the integration of Motto Mortgage Elite and RE/MAX Elite has created an extra layer of built-in trust within the transaction. We are all part of the same family. My clients benefit because I know I can easily collaborate with the Motto team to find the best solution for each homebuyer.” – Emily French, agent, RE/MAX Elite, Snohomish, WA
“I enjoy being able to walk right next door and talk to the Motto Mortgage Champions loan originators. It has helped build up trust and made communication easy. The service they provide is top notch and they are always available to help.” – Jim Steele, Leader of Steele Team and agent, RE/MAX Champions, Trinity, FL
“I have three requirements for the mortgage brokers I collaborate and build a relationship with. 1) Availability. 2) If you say the buyer is prequalified and will close, make sure you get them to close. 3) Competitive rates and fees. Loan originators at Motto Mortgage Impact fit the bill and more. Additionally, our broker owners never push the RE/MAX agents to use a Motto Mortgage loan originator, I work with them because they are good and have proven to close deals.” – Robb Hopper, Office Manager and Leader of Hopper Group, RE/MAX Results, Owasso, OK
Why Motto LOs love working with RE/MAX agents
“I enjoy working with RE/MAX agents because they are the best. They are very knowledgeable and listen to their client’s needs. I believe the close proximity to my local RE/MAX office creates opportunity to build strong relationships with agents. In turn, my real estate agent colleagues know my work ethic is to ‘get it done’ and do what is best for our clients, no matter the time.” – Sherida Farr, Loan Originator, Motto Mortgage Makers, Chattanooga, TN
“There is a feeling of comradery and family within the brands because we have the same bosses. If our RE/MAX and Motto offices do well, we all benefit. The clients take comfort in the fact that they have trusted experts working hand-in-hand to make sure that the transaction runs smoothly. I strongly believe that the stress level of our clients is lower because of the one-stop shopping experience we are able to provide.” – Mary Babinski, Senior Loan Originator, Motto Mortgage Champions, Trinity FL
These real estate agent and loan originator collaborations have the power to support the goals of clients while easing the detailed home buying and financing processes for one another. In an industry where relationships and hard work reign, consider working with a professional just as dedicated as you are.
