The premise
Refera is not a lead site. Every referral here is a real client, sent by a licensed agent who cannot serve them, to one who can.
You are not buying names from a form. Another agent is handing you their client, with their own reputation attached to the introduction.
How it works
Most of it happens in one conversation. Here is the whole thing, start to finish.
Browse or post
Browse live referrals other agents posted in the states you are licensed in, searchable by keyword, price, and terms. Have one you can’t service? Put it up.
Apply with a note
Tell the poster why you’re the right agent for it. Applying starts a conversation with them right away.
Talk, then pick
Message any applicant before deciding anything. When the poster picks one, the rest get told so nobody is left waiting.
Work the referral
The same conversation becomes the deal room. Contact info, both profiles, and the listing terms are all in one place.
Close it out
When it’s over, either agent ends the connection and says how it went. Reviews stay hidden until both are in.
Built to a standard
A marketplace is only as good as its members. Refera is strict about who gets in and what gets recorded.
Verified agents only
Everyone here is a verified agent. An account takes a name, brokerage, and license state, so you always know who you’re dealing with.
Direct conversations
You talk to the actual agent from the first message on. Once you’re matched, the same thread becomes your deal room with full contact info.
Double-blind reviews
Reviews don’t show until both agents have written one. Nobody can read yours first and write theirs in response.
A record you can go back to
Every connection keeps its listing, messages, outcome, and reviews together. If there’s ever a question about what was said, it’s all there.
Clean endings
Either agent can end a connection and say why. The other agent sees the reason, and both leave a review.
Agent to agent only
Nothing on Refera is a purchased consumer lead. Referrals come from licensed agents, and the posting agent picks who gets the client.
What Refera costs
Refera is free.
$0 to browse, post, and apply
Every agent is license verified, and you keep 100% of your referral fee. Refera never takes a cut of a commission, and there is no membership fee while the network grows.
If Refera helps you close a deal, an optional tip says thanks. That is the only money we ever ask about.
Questions agents ask first
A quick read on who Refera is for, how the marketplace works, and what belongs in a referral post.
What is Refera?
Refera is a referral marketplace for licensed real estate agents. Agents apply to live referral opportunities with a fit note, message directly, work the match, and leave double blind reviews after the connection ends. Agents with a client they cannot work post the referral and pick their partner.
Who can browse, post, or apply to a referral?
Refera is for licensed agents. Browsing, posting, and applying all require a verified agent account with a display name, brokerage, and license state, so every bit of marketplace activity comes from identifiable real estate professionals.
How much does Refera cost?
Refera is free. Browsing, posting, and applying cost nothing, and Refera never takes a percentage of your referral fee. If Refera helps you close a deal, an optional tip is always appreciated, and that is the only money we ever ask about.
How do referral fees work on Refera?
Referral percentage, price band, market, and timing live on the listing and in the conversation. Agents should use whatever referral agreement and brokerage approval their situation requires.
What should agents include in a referral post?
A strong post includes city or ZIP, client need, timing, price range, property type, and proposed referral fee. Keep client names, exact addresses, phone numbers, and emails out of public listings.
Is Refera a lead-generation site?
No. Refera is built for agent-to-agent referral business, not selling consumer leads. The posting agent chooses the partner after comparing fit notes and messages.
It’s early here. That’s the point.
The agents who join now shape the network, and joining costs nothing.
