Pros

You will stay busy. There is a lot of good brand exposure and the support staff is great.

Cons

You get 18% of commissions while MSRE keeps the rest. Turnover at the management and agent level is troubling. Nobody stays here more than 6 months. Deceitful business practices relating to the “Guaranteed Offer” that is MSRE’s way to get in your house as most of the homes DO NOT QUALIFY!! They also require you to be present in the office (even though you are a 1099 contractor)

Mark Spain Real Estate Response

Thank you for the feedback! That said, I do have to disagree with a lot of your points. We closed over 700 Guaranteed Offer transactions in 2019 and our clients are happy that we provide multiple options versus just one pathway to sell their home. That said, we are a fast-paced sales culture and are certainly not for everyone. I am sorry you didn't find success in our system. Best of luck to you in the future! -- John Makarewicz

Pros

Some really great people work there Large support staff Great company marketing exposure

Cons

Low integrity among management (words and actions are too often in opposition) Beautiful mission and value statement that is NOT lived out Pressure to make the sale at literally ANY cost... do WHATEVER it takes to get the client to sign "YOUR HOME SOLD, GUARANTEED". It's in all of their marketing. But, I'm not aware of a single client that ever accepted the terms. Clients find it deceptive... because it is. MSRE calls it a marketing hook. Low 18% commission to the agent... company keeps 82%! However, it's possible to negotiate a more favorable agent commission.
