Compass Culture Carrier Award

The residential real estate business is very interesting when you pull back the curtain and look behind the scenes. To the general public,  the only thing that differentiates real estate firms is a different logo on a yard sign or an advertising campaign. To those of us in the industry, we get to see how the sausage is made and what is behind the glossy company image.

In a word, culture. As with any company, the culture sets a tone that attracts (or not) people to join. In my case, the Compass culture is what brought me to the company as I found it to be refreshingly different. Real estate brokers as a general rule compete against every other broker for business. That includes brokers in your own office. This tends to breed an environment of distrust or lack of collaboration in fear of getting business “stolen”. (read more by clicking on the image)
