Our goal is always to help you achieve your goals! We want to take as much as possible off of your plate to make sure you are focused on what you do best. Let us do the paperwork, date management, and compliance management while you grow your business.  

All of our agents have one of our fabulous transaction coordinators assigned to them or to their team. Your transaction coordinator will get to know you, your business, your standards, and how to exceed your expectations for all of your transactions. We are part of your team! 

We know how important it is for you to keep up your reputation! Real Estate is a referral based business. Our #1 objective is to help you grow your business, so being an extension of you and your team is incredibly important. We include you an all correspondence, so you can see everything we are working on. We send out Friday updates to you every week, and we check in well before dates are due. 

 There are many reasons why hiring our Transaction Coordinator team is a smart hiring decision: 

• We come fully trained
• We come with the best systems in the business
• We charge a flat fee per file, so there is no overhead cost
• We are a tax write-off for your business
• There's no worry about us being sick or on vacation since our team can cover for each other
• There's no need for your to worry about health care, 401k, benefits, or payroll

That's a great question! We LOVE when our agents hire assistants. That means your business is growing and we helped you get there. We work very well with assistants. This allows for our agents to have even more leverage and to focus even more on lead generation. Over 25% of our agents have assistants while still utilizing our services. 

 Of course! When we begin working with our agents, it's often times when you are feeling overwhelmed. We are happy to jump in on files which you've already started. 

We are automatically paid the Tuesday after the request is submitted or the Tuesday after successful closing.

 A real estate transaction coordinator handles the administrative details of a transaction so the real estate agent can stay focused on their clients, negotiations, lead generation, and growing their business.

At Home Free TC, our transaction coordination team helps manage paperwork, deadlines, communication, document preparation, compliance-related administrative tasks, and the many moving pieces required to get a transaction from contract to closing.

There isn't one specific transaction count when every agent should hire a transaction coordinator. Rather, is transaction management is taking time away from the work and life that matters most to you?

If you're spending evenings managing paperwork, struggling to keep up with deadlines, losing prospecting time to administrative work, or finding it difficult to maintain the same client experience as your business grows, it may be time to add transaction coordination support.

For many productive agents, outsourcing transaction coordination can create leverage without immediately adding another employee to manage.

 A transaction coordinator creates leverage by taking repeatable administrative work off the agent's plate.

Instead of personally managing every deadline, document, email, signature, and closing detail, the agent has a team and process helping move the transaction forward.

That can give agents more time for client relationships, lead generation, negotiations, appointments, family, vacations, and the other priorities that are difficult to protect when you're managing every detail yourself.

 Yes. While hiring a transaction coordinator won't automatically create work-life balance, removing transaction administration from your personal workload can give you significantly more control over your time.

Many agents reach a point where evenings, weekends, vacations, and family time are interrupted by administrative tasks. Transaction coordination allows an agent to delegate much of that repeatable work while maintaining systems and accountability around the transaction.

Our goal at Home Free TC is bigger than helping agents in Minnesota and Wisconsin close transactions. We want to help agents build businesses that give them more freedom.

It depends on what you need to delegate.

If most of the work you want to remove from your plate happens after you have a signed contract, outsourced transaction coordination may be a more efficient first step than hiring a full-time employee.

If you need someone handling a much broader range of responsibilities throughout your business, such as marketing, database management, scheduling, errands, or prospecting support, a dedicated assistant may make more sense.

Many successful agents eventually use both. In fact, about 25% of Home Free TC clients have an assistant or other administrative support while continuing to outsource transaction coordination to our team.
