Why Don't Real Estate Agents Want to Work Together
Hi Everyone, I started working as a real estate agent a few months ago. I have been making a lot of calls and I was excited to collaborate with real estate agents from other brokerages. My brokerage is non-traditional and we only sell investment properties. We offer the ability for other agents to add their commission to our deals if they find a buyer. I know there are a lot of agents who are searching for properties for their clients, and I have off-market inventory they won't find on the MLS. I was very surprised when I found that a lot of agents didn't want to work together. I feel like I am meeting a need of theirs, and there is opportunity for both of us to make a sale and satisfy our clients needs. It's a win-win. I can see financing being a hurdle for properties sold as-is, but there are so many cash buyers out there too. I am wondering why so many traditional agents don't want to work with agents who are wholesaling properties.

Agents do not want to work with wholesalers. That word is taboo amongst the realtor community for the most part and most realtors are old-school and don’t care to understand it.
