Pros

The training was decent, location is great lots of places to eat.

Cons

Oh boy where to begin. They claim to be “faith based” yet their actual practice seems to be far from that. If you need some flexibility this job isn’t for you. People go in to real estate for the flexibility and the draw of being your own boss. This is not the case here you’re an “employee” as far as you’re scheduled time and efforts and your entire life must be aligned with what they want, except the pay is still commission apart from training! Ha! If you question their policies or disagree with being treated poorly, they claim you’re just “not inline with our values.” While in training I was berated for feeling confident using the scripts they gave me and they said “You need to have it memorized, we don’t pay you to read scripts!” Well that’s how you memorize it..... by using it! Also they call you a “clock watcher” if you leave at the time they tell you you’re allowed to leave.... even if you got there on time which is 7:30am. God forbid you actually leave on time. Yikes. Also, they make you do these ridiculous phone calls in the morning BEFORE you’re scheduled to come in to talk about your numbers from the day before. The call is at 7am. The calm is mandatory. So forget about that morning coffee or that cry in the parking lot or giving your kids one last hug. Then they make you spew some BS about your goals for the day. Then you have to do it all again in a morning meeting. It’s very bizarre and cult-like. 0/10 would not recommend.

Thank you so much for your feedback on your experience with High Performance Real Estate. Pretty much all of this post is true (except the faith based part which I will comment on below). Unfortunately (or fortunately) we are in an industry that has a super low barrier to entry where most agents sell 6-8 homes per year on average (it's a scary fact!). The National Association of Realtor (N.A.R.) statistic states that 80% of Realtors who receive their license do not make it in this industry within 24 months. The main reason for their low production are all of the reasons posted in the review given. That is ... no training, no structure, no accountability, no ongoing skills work, flexible hours and no clear goals (daily or otherwise). The reason we exist is to serve our clients at the highest level on their largest asset and serve our team members and community through our non-profit. And to be clear, there is definitely no desperation to hire here at HPREA. That's not to say that it isn't really hard to find good people. In fact, we go through over 100 applications to select 1-2 agents that would be a great fit for our team. We have definitely hired team members in the past that did not prove to fit our Core Values and we strive to learn from those experiences. As far as the comment about our claim to be a "faith based" business, that is exactly how we run this team. We are called to work hard and to use our God given talents to serve others. We are also called to help our fellow brother or sister when they need it ... and sometimes that comes through accountability and even discipline. We also have a lot of fun and are grateful to get to do this work with our teammates. All that being said, we are still looking for talented team members! If you are reading this and you want to be part of a "high performance" real estate team and you refuse to accept the status quo in our industry, we would love to talk to you ... please visit HighPerformanceRealEstateCareers.com for more info.

Pros

They know that prospecting is important.

Cons

They don't respect sacred prospecting time. There is minimal to no training. A lot of fluff and unnecessary meetings most of which are so the CEO can hear himself talk. They basically want you to get leads and they'll throw you away. The splits are also terrible. You need to sell at least 20 properties in order to squeak out a living.

Dear Former Employee, we are truly sorry you feel this way. We provide a 4 hour block each day dedicated just to prospecting (new business development) and apologize if this wasn't enough time for you. Our 12 week training program ensures new employees are provided every tool for success. Our top agents make over $300,000 a year. If that's what you consider "squeaking out a living" then it seems we are not the right fit for you. We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.
