Prepare Your Mindset

Be ready for push-back. It’s normal for your broker and others in your brokerage to be disappointed upon hearing your decision. Remember, you’re doing this for the betterment of yourself, your family, and your career, so there’s nothing to be ashamed of.
You are an independent contractor. You need to be pragmatic about improving your career.
Don’t be surprised if your Broker suddenly offers you a “special deal” to get you to stay. Ask yourself why it took transferring to receive these new benefits.
![noun-paper-1014786 300](https://realtypathwelcome.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/noun-paper-1014786-300.png)
Be professional. Write a professional resignation letter and/or have it well thought out and meet with your Broker personally. Avoid being negative about their company and you don’t need to justify your move.
It is never a good idea to email or call that you’re leaving (or have left). You’ll most certainly run into associates or the Broker from your previous company and you’ll want to maintain a professional relationship.
It’s best to keep it short and succinct (one page maximum).
![noun-calendar-689869 300](https://realtypathwelcome.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/noun-calendar-689869-300.png)
Be timely. Avoid speaking to other agents in the office until you notify your Broker. It will be embarrassing and awkward if one of your “friends” tells the broker before you do.
You may want to time your announcement and move until after any under-contract transactions close – if closings aren’t months away. You don’t want to be “out of the business” for an extended period.
Don’t wait for the perfect time to leave – there never is.

Be proactive. If you are using a company email address, set it up to forward to your new email address. If the company helped set-up any websites or profiles, change your passwords.
If you have active listings, review your Independent Contractor Agreement to see how your brokerage handles them. You may have to agree to a referral fee in the amount of your current commission split before your broker will release them. (By the way, in the unlikely event you ever leave us, you get to keep your listings – no problem!)
Prepare for Your Transfer
Export and Save Archived Transactions
Export and save your transaction files for future reference:
Other proprietary systems most likely have an export function. Search the “Help” or “Support” section.

Export and Save Your Personal Database
If you are using your current company-provided CRM, use the export function to download all your saved information into an Excel (CSV) file, which can then be uploaded into your new CRM.

Import the data into your new CRM System
It’s best not to overwork it when you upload your database into a new CRM. You can always go back and add tags, change status, etc…

Prepare Your Sphere of Influence
Announce your move to your SOI and Leads
Many agents experience a boost in their business after transferring to Realtypath.
Use your move as an opportunity to contact your entire database. Your announcement often brings up opportunities you may have missed.
Once you have made the decision to move, contact your SOI as soon as possible to let them know how to reach you.

Transfer Listings
If you have active listings, which your previous Brokerage has agreed to release, follow these steps:
- Obtain the Seller’s agreement to transfer the listing to Realtypath.
- Use the “Cancellation and Termination of the Exclusive Right to Sell Listing Agreement” (UAR Form 62) to cancel the listing.
- Initiate a new listing agreement, including other documents on the Listing Forms Checklist (RP005).
- Ensure the original listing has been cancelled in the MLS. Enter and activate the new listing into the MLS or use the MLS Listing Transfer Form.
