First Team Real Estate

I love this Company and continue to advance my career. Started brand new in business as an Agent, became an employee a few years in, and have been promoted to an Assistant Manager.  The sky is the limit for those wishing to work well with others, and engage in a collaborative environment. In the company's past was very fractionalized in its approach at multiple offices, however there was a change in leadership 2 years ago that has brought about growth and a "true" family approach to growing staff and agent talent in a rewarding and clear career path. Departments and Offices are unified in helping people serve the community, and it shows in the continued growth and expansion of the Company. Made me sad to see the couple of poor reviews here, as was clear from their reviews they did not wish to work as a team, as realized in their use of I and me in their reviews. The culture of First Team is about team, us, and family working together to produce results for our customers, and creating better communities for all to enjoy. If you are a team player and wish to grow, this is the place for you. If you are all about you, please pass, as the culture is about supporting each other in collaboration, and your not going to fit in this culture.

I think that First Team Real Estate is a great company to work for if you are interested in being a real estate agent. They have a great training program, actually one of the best in the industry, and they have a great marketing, IT and agent support program. In the last few years the company has done an amazing job of improving its agent web services that offers all kinds of tools, business development applications and marketing material that will help agents build and grow their business. Being a successful real estate agent takes dedication, desire, determination and discipline. Most of the Office Managers are great, very helpful and will mentor you on creating a solid real estate business. In addition, the company has a strong and dominant brand name that is recognized by an overwhelming majority of buyers and sellers.

Worked at the same office for many years. The manager lied constantly, threw me under the bus and was never ever supportive. The manager gave all referrals and phone "ups" to his friends and cohorts. The office had no team spirit, so the name "First Team" is a complete misnomer. Very cut-throat and unpleasant place to work. Manager had friends working there, earning a pay check for doing absolutely nothing. One of them even lived out of the State! Vendors would bring in little incentives, gift cards, candy, etc. Manger would literally take them all home with him. Vendors would give baseball and game tickets to the manager and he would take his buddies with him, even though it was supposedly a "closed office". Absolutely horrible place to be an agent or an employee.  Hang your license elsewhere. Never ever have anything to do with this place.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Nothing They Charge there Realtors Montly desk fees after you sign up with them and they get mad if you tell them it’s not in the contract you signed. They don’t Re-negotiate your split at all you still have all normal realtor fees plus they give you a crm but when you leave they will steal all your leads!!! Plus the broker gives his favorites free leads so if your not there favorite your screwed..

Everything everyone they all suck

High Pressure Cut Throat every man or women out for them selves  

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
You do your own thing your self employed

This was a temp job that I worked at until I had my first child.  

I worked for the facilities manager in the corporate office and we took care of the 22 facilities as far as the furniture, phones, internet.  I learned how to shop for the best corporate pricing for most of the utilities.  I made spreadsheets for management to compare.  I did all aspects of office duties.

My co-workers were great and we got along very well.  

There was really nothing hard about the job.  My boss wanted me to stay on but I took the job because it was a temp position and wanted to stay home and raise my baby so the hardest part was leaving.

The most enjoyable was learning how a real estate office was run and the great group I worked with.

The initial training I received through First Team was excellent.  You start of in a 3 week course to learn the foundation of business in real estate, sales procedures, cold & warm prospecting techniques, and contract summaries and execution.

After that, my office supported my efforts with weekly training and many company-wide workshops.

The freedom of a career in real estate is invigorating for some and the downfall of most.  I chose to work from home on most days, where I could be free of distraction.  Many agents like to complain, talk about themselves or talk about nothing, but when I was at the office it was easy to find my manager or someone who can answer questions.

This work place specifically in the recruiting department at the corporate is a joke. It is extremely uncomfortable setting, the employees are beyond unprofessional. The management lets the employees call the shots and does not enforce any of their rules that are so called in place. Steer clear of the corporate office, I recommend going to an office as a Office Administrator so that you can work alone.

Office atmosphere is nicer than most, warm inviting and open cubicle work spaces provide opportunity to form open working relationship with other staff.  Employees are welcome to interact with agents and each other in developing solid working relationship and open door policies of upper management.

First Team has a great corporate culture and it is one of the best Real Estate Brokers in Southern California.

They provide great training to agents as well as their employees, so everyone keeps growing.

My only criticism is that they do not compensate as well as they should; both agents and employees.

Arrival at office, attending office meeting (learn various sales techniques), obtain clients through various taught techniques, do research for and assist current clients. 

Culture was very friendly, experienced peers would constantly provide assistance and advice.

On weekend days, host open houses in order to obtain clients.
