Skyline Properties Reviews

Pros

Desk fees are reasonable....Management is confident and very willing to assist...

Cons

No "Floor Time" opportunities to help pull in a sale or two...Would be nice if they had a "walk up" type list..in order of seniority, so when a call comes in the opportunity could be handed over to the next person on the list. Or maybe a drawing..where 1 name is pulled each month and that agent would get the next opportunity that comes 'through the door" (or through the phone).

Advice to Senior Management

Keep up the good work...and share some of the opportunities that come through the door!

Pros

You don't have to be a member of NAR, which will save you $500 a year. No floor time. No mandatory meetings. They are there if you need them, but pretty much leave you alone other than that. Good for seasoned agents.

Cons

Inconsistent knowledge levels in Managing Brokers. They don't have the training/mentor programs that Windermere/Keller Williams/JLS have in place, but it's not a big deal if you've been in the business awhile.

Advice to Senior Management

Make sure managing brokers maintain current knowledge of forms, rules, etc. Provide more training opportunities. In house free clock hour classes would be good.

Pros

Complete freedom. It's a desk fee operation. You pay a monthly amount to hang your license at their office and sell real estate. Support is there, but you'll be on the field solo most of the time, which is what the job is about.

Cons

Downside can include minimal support when you really need it. Their offices are far, with no central locations in Seattle. You really have to drive to get there.

Advice to Senior Management

My advice is to stop recruiting to up your numbers and train your current agents so they won't end up in a tricky situation.
