Great customer service. I was contacted by 3 agents quickly interviewed all 3 and picked one that I felt most comfortable with. Honestly all 3 would have done a great job so it actually was a tough decision. I didn't expect this high quality agents to choose from initially but glad I did. Effective Agents didn't spam my email or bother me and the 1 time I had a question they responded same day. I sold my home and bought a new one with ease.

effectiveagents.com provided me with the names of three high performance realtors, two of which contacted me within 5 minutes. The realtor I selected has proven to be one of the best I have encountered in my 8 home sales experiences. He has referred me to local resources he knows and trusts for the repairs I need to address for optimizing my home for sale. I highly recommend effectiveagents.com as a great resource for finding a performance-proven realtor to help you with the sale/purchase of home

How we rank the agents we match you with
Our rankings are built from verified transaction data, not advertising spend. For every agent we analyze more than fifteen performance signals, including recent and all-time sales, days on market, negotiation results, price-point fit, and verified reviews.
Agents cannot pay for placement in these rankings. The underlying data refreshes as new closed transactions are reported, so rankings shift with real market performance. Learn how we rank agents.
Rankings reviewed by Kevin Stuteville, Licensed Florida Real Estate Broker (License BK3068131), Founder of EffectiveAgents.
Questions people ask before they enroll
How does this program work?
Start with the form at the top of this page: your address if you are selling, your zip code if you are buying. We match you with up to three top local agents ranked on their verified sales results. Interview them, pick the one you like, and close with that agent. Your donation is handled after closing. Enroll here before you speak with an agent so the donation is attached to your transaction from the start.
What does it cost me?
Nothing. The matching is free and there is no obligation to hire anyone we introduce. Your agent's commission is agreed between you and your agent, as with any sale or purchase.
How does EffectiveAgents get paid?
When you close with an agent we introduced, that agent's brokerage shares a portion of its commission with EffectiveAgents as a referral fee. That fee is what funds this program, including your donation. You never pay us directly.
How much is the donation?
This page describes the offer. See the program terms at the bottom of this page for the details and limits that apply.
Why use EffectiveAgents instead of picking an agent myself?
Most people choose an agent from a yard sign, an ad or a friend's suggestion. We rank agents on what they actually did: verified sale records, how close to the asking price their listings sold, how quickly, and how they perform at your price point, alongside verified reviews. Agents cannot pay to be recommended. A stronger agent is the difference between an average result and a superior one, and the donation comes on top of that.
Can I use an agent I already know?
The donation requires enrolling here first and closing with an agent we introduce. If you are already under contract with a real estate broker, this offer is not for your current transaction.
Does the program cover both buying and selling?
Yes. Sellers enter the address of the home they are selling; buyers enter the zip code where they want to buy. Doing both? Start with the sale and let your matched agent know about the purchase.
Where is the program available?
Wherever EffectiveAgents has qualified agents, which covers most of the United States. Availability can depend on the area and the transaction; see the program terms at the bottom of this page.

Terms and Conditions
In order to qualify for the program, you must be enrolled in the program and be represented at closing by an approved agent that we have introduced you to. This benefit is not available to sellers in short sale transactions. In certain states, buyers may need seller cooperation to participate in the Real Estate Rewards program. The reward amount is equal to 50% of the referral revenue received by the program administrator. For commercial and residential real estate purchases and leases, the reward amount will be calculated on the broker's gross compensation. The reward amount will be either 12.5% or 17.5% of your real estate agent's compensation, depending on the agreement that we have with your agent. Since real estate commissions are negotiable, and occasionally fluctuate based on transaction intricacies, it is not possible to know the exact reward amount in advance. Real Estate Agents may not be available in all areas, the program is not available where EffectiveAgents® does not have coverage or in remote areas where an EffectiveAgents® qualified agent is unavailable. In other states where the benefit is offered and an EffectiveAgents® approved agent is unavailable, we may not be able to assist you.
