Join the leading commercial real estate company in the nation in terms of commission payouts.
Because of Welfont’s unique model, we’re able to make the highest commission payouts in the industry without back charging any fees, such as desk fees. While at the same time being able to provide draws, health benefits, leads, expense accounts and the best agent sales and training support.
We frontload our commission structure where the agents keep the majority of it. The company makes its money through the backend support fees it charges clients (e.g. asset management, advisory, investments, finance, etc.). This allows us to recruit and retain better agents. The better agents we have, the bigger our pipeline, the more our company profits. In part, that’s our model and what makes us unique.
The other part is that The Welfont Group is a boutique commercial brokerage company that focuses on finding ideal properties for investor buyers looking to buy vacant or more distressed property opportunities throughout the United States. We specialize in buyer representation, but we manage each investment from beginning to end until our clients realize their return on investment.
While other brokerages may focus on getting the transaction done, we focus on making the transaction profitable for our clients. Our clients aren’t in real estate to do transactions. They are in real estate to be profitable. We make that our aim.
Along these lines, we become the subject matter experts on our niche transaction types as we guide our clients through the process of utilizing many different tax strategies, valuation techniques; investment systems, buying approaches, and lead generation methods to help them optimize their return on investments.
