Agents & brokers

Real estate agents and brokers sometimes have a client whose home is hard to list: it needs major repairs, has tenants, has title or probate delays, or the owner simply wants a private sale. DispoKey gives you a way to bring that property to our network of cash buyers without losing the client.

You stay the agent of record and keep your relationship with the seller. We share buyer interest and offers with you, and your commission is handled at closing as agreed in writing. Your client still chooses whether to accept any offer, and nothing is shown publicly without the owner's permission.

Use this topic to learn how the partnership works, what information to send, how we protect your client and your commission, and when a normal MLS listing is the better choice. Start with the agent page, or submit a property directly if you already have the owner's go-ahead to share the details.

Good fits include estate properties where heirs live out of state, rentals with long-term tenants, homes with fire, water or foundation damage, and owners facing a deadline such as relocation, divorce or a tax sale. If the home would sell quickly on the open market at full price, we will tell you so honestly.

Prepare a concise property brief before introducing an opportunity. Include the condition, occupancy, access arrangements, photographs the owner permits you to share, and the reason a conventional listing may not suit the client. Separate observed facts from estimates. A contractor quotation is different from a rough repair allowance, and an owner’s preferred price is different from a supported market valuation.

Discuss communication boundaries with the client and the DispoKey team before sharing documents. Identify the person who should receive questions, offers and scheduling requests. Avoid sending unnecessary personal records in an introductory message; explain what information is available and ask what is actually needed. Keep dated notes of the owner’s instructions so later conversations remain consistent with their preferences.

Compare options using the same assumptions: likely net proceeds, preparation expenses, occupancy needs and the proposed completion date. Do not treat an expression of buyer interest as an accepted purchase agreement. Confirm compensation and responsibilities in writing rather than assuming an introduction alone settles them. If the property is already on the MLS, raise that status first: the off-market contract submission path rejects on-market deals. Review the agent partnership information before choosing a submission path.
