Whats the difference between Redfin Agents and Redfin Partner Agents?
In major metropolitan areas, Redfin offers direct service from a real estate agent who is an employee of Redfin. Redfin’s agents earn a bonus based exclusively on the customer satisfaction of each client with whom we do business. In areas where we don’t employ our own agents, we can refer you to a partner agent. It is always clear on our site when you are choosing to work directly with Redfin and when with a Redfin partner. And it is always your choice. No one will call or email except at your request. With direct service, Redfin employs a team approach with one lead agent to handle advice and negotiations, using field agents to help with tours. The partner agent, on the other hand, provides one-on-one support from beginning to end.
