Program Details

Overview

RHL Referral Company, LLC (RHL) was established for the sole purpose of referring prospective purchasers and/or sellers to Roy H Long Company. RHL’s objective is to provide agents who choose to no longer actively participate in the real estate market a way to leverage their income based on their prior investments. In some cases agents choose to retire, while in other situations agents choose to simply follow a different career path. In both situations it behoves agents to join a referral company in order to leverage the investment they have made in obtaining and maintaining their real estate license and developing their sphere of influence.

Under RHL’s program, an agent activates their license with RHL and becomes eligible to legally receive commissions (upon closing) for the referral of clients to RHL. Since this is a “Referral Only” program the RHL agent is no longer actively involved in any part of the real estate business other than the referral of clients and the receipt of commissions through RHL. Therefore, the RHL agent no longer incurs any of the many costs associated with being an active agent. These costs include such things as E&O Insurance / Board / MLS / Entry Device / Lock Boxes / Advertising / Mailings / Gas / etc. Clients referred to RHL are assigned to experienced Long Realty agents (approximately 1,150 agents in Southern Arizona) or, in areas where Long is not directly active, to professional agents with our network brokerage partners (approximately 170,000 agents). So, you can refer clients looking to buy or sell anywhere in the United States. Upon closing, referral commissions are paid to RHL and by RHL to you as the RHL agent.
