Male speaker: Metro Brokers Real Estate: The Colorado brand that is growing. Here is why!

Male speaker: I was with RE/MAX for about five years and one of the changes that I did make going to Metro Brokers was just to have the independence of Metro Brokers and to be able to own my own company.

Female speaker: Metro Brokers really offers tools to their agents that other companies don't seem to offer.

Male speaker: You know I think I was ready for a change. I was there at ten years. It was a great company nice people. Then they merged a couple of our offices together which I wasn't real fond of that and because it became such a big office than them to deal with so I decided to come to Metro Brokers and certainly have enjoyed it.

Female speaker: The cost to RE/MAX really was not making sense for me as to what it was doing for me as getting basis and what the cost was, so I decided that I could do my own thing and I like the idea of Metro Brokers still having a big name.

Male speaker: There were a couple of things but one of the big one's is that RE/MAX the office owner gets the benefit of all the things that are bought for the office but they're paid for by the agents. They also need to operate at a profit and in most cases in Metro Brokers it is not. We just kind of get together, share expenses share what we are doing and we all get the benefit of a lower cost.

Male speaker: I had seen and heard people talking about Metro Brokers and what we might able to find there and that there were office that had, you know, technologically advanced services and equipment and so forth and could teach us. So, that was great. I want to go there.

Male speaker: I think probably more independent because the company I was with was pretty structured and getting more and more structured as the days went by. So I liked the independent feeling of it.

Male speaker: I started looking at the cost. It seems like it was just doubling. When I interviewed with Metro Brokers it seems like I could keep my cost down. Therefore, I could keep my cost down for the clients.

Female speaker: I just like the idea of being my own boss. I could work from home but yet I still have an office, professional office that I could go to. Everything just made seems to me and I love it and wished I could have done it a long time ago.

Male speaker: Being able to control your own cost and control what you do and make your own decisions. You can do that at Metro Brokers is that, it is there enlarged at RE/MAX but not totally.

Male speaker: I guess I got to the point where it did not made sense anymore. When I was doing it with RE/MAX it was fine but then I got to point where you know just spending this much money just didn't make sense so I just decided that it wasn't so.

Male speaker: Metro Brokers offers a great opportunity plus there is a lot of savings in your expenses. It reduces the expenses your outlay of dollars and it gives you the full ability of having a national brand name and to be able to do your business.

Female speaker: Well I think in the real estate business you developed confidence and self-assurance over time and one of the things that I realize is that I can do this on my own smart enough. I have enough resources. I have a good sphere of influence and I have a good client base so that I can do this without a big emblem behind me although I believe that Metro Brokers is a really respectable company and people... You know, I can go to a listing presentation with a Metro Brokers' logo and get the same respect.

Male speaker: I came from [indiscernible] [00:03:50] and then I went on to RE/MAX and I always looked at Metro Brokers as the [Inaudible] [00:03:56]. Metro Brokers has come a long way since the get-go and there's a lot big companies within the system.

Male speaker: What I found since being with Metro Brokers is we are the only organization that is out there that you could start as a broker associate, you can move up to an independent broker, you can get your employing broker license and develop your own broker team and you can be an office owner. So, it is the only company that is out here that you can actually start and stay with Metro Brokers through your whole career and open you own office and no other companies offers that.

Male speaker: What I like about Metro Brokers is that I feel like I, you know, I am a little bit more at liberty to do what I want. No I don't have quite constraints to work with them that we had in the RE/MAX office not the rules and regulations so much as we are pretty much on our own. I do not get told how to advertise, you know, how to carry on my business and that is the part I like about it.

Male speaker: I always thought Metro Brokers was a brokerage that they did everything and then I realize that it is not that you are basically independent. What you get from Metro Brokers is that is the market, brand and then you know the presence that you know Metro Brokers has.

Male speaker: You know in these times right now, it is hard. It is not so much how much you make any more, it is how much you keep. You can keep your cost down, not change your services, I think that's why they are switching over.

Male speaker: Oh, I would think financially is probably the first big reason and I think also that independent feeling might be a pretty important one too. When I was at the other company I was paying about $1800 a month and now I am about $200 a month. It is pretty easy math.

Female speaker: I think the biggest priority thing is the cost. RE/MAX is a good name and all that but I just don't think for what you have to pay for that it's doesn't make sense especially in the market we have now and the economy we have now.

Male speaker: I think it is the lower cost and getting what you get for your money and I think that is a huge thing for a lot of people especially in a tight market like this you got to be thinking about how much you are spending on or your works, so.

Male speaker: RE/MAX people are experienced they are great agents but they have an organization that is a little costly to them even though they are a 100 %. What Metro Brokers offers them is the ability to step outside that organization to form their own company and be on their own and most of these people know exactly what to do. They have all the ability to do it the don't need a managing broker over or top of them and once that light bulb goes on and they realized that they don't need anybody as a managing broker and they can do it themselves. They will come to Metro Brokers.

Male speaker: Brand recognition is important. No doubt. But we have that at Metro Brokers also and we will show them 98 % of the people in the State of Colorado understand and know who Metro Brokers is. So you're getting that when you join Metro Brokers. So you're not giving up what you think you're getting at RE/MAX in the balloon. Now you're getting us top side.
