  • How it Works:
    • Opcity calls online home buyer and seller leads to gather the typical information you’re used to asking new clients (i.e. price point, location, timeline, etc.).
    • Once Opcity confirms the consumer is a serious home buyer or seller, they live transfer the call to you, introducing you to prospective clients who match your profile.
    • Once connected, the referral is yours. Opcity only collects a referral fee (35%) upon close.
  • Commission Example:
    • $10,000 Overall Commission
      • $3,500 to Opcity (35% referral fee)
    • $6,500 Commission Left
      • $5,850 to Clockhouse Agent (90%)
