We are seeking an energetic Realtor Partner to become an integral part of our successful Chicago-based team. This distinctive "Partnership" opportunity is designed for motivated agents who want to grow their business by leveraging our comprehensive administrative support, advanced marketing resources, and state-of-the-art technology—while retaining the flexibility to represent both buyers and sellers. Instead of focusing on a single role, you will serve as a versatile advisor, managing a diverse portfolio of listings and buyer needs across the Chicagoland region.

Primary Responsibilities

• Dual Agency Expertise: Efficiently manage simultaneous transactions by acting as both the Listing Agent for sellers and the Buyer’s Agent for buyers, often within the same transaction cycle.
• Lead Generation & Client Development: Actively pursue new business opportunities, nurture referrals from your network, and convert inbound leads generated by the team into loyal clients.
• Market Research & Pricing Strategy: Utilize MRED/ConnectMLS to prepare comprehensive Comparative Market Analyses (CMAs) that accurately price seller listings and protect buyers from overpaying.
• Collaborative Teamwork: Participate in weekly strategy meetings to share market trends, exchange exclusive "pocket listings," and uncover cross-selling prospects within our internal network.
• Transaction Coordination: Oversee the entire transaction process from contract execution to closing, working closely with Chicago-area real estate attorneys, lenders, and inspectors to address any issues during attorney review and inspection periods.

Required Qualifications

• Valid Illinois Real Estate Broker License.
• In-depth familiarity with Chicago neighborhoods and nearby suburban markets.
• A genuine "Partner" mindset—eager to build and expand a business within a business, not simply occupy a position.

• Develop and maintain strong relationships with realtors and real estate professionals to expand our network and drive business growth.
• Collaborate with the sales team to create and implement effective strategies for increasing property listings and sales.
• Conduct market research to stay informed about current real estate trends, pricing, and competition in the Chicago area.
• Organize and participate in networking events and open houses to promote The Saladino Sells Team and attract potential clients.
• Provide exceptional customer service to realtors and clients, ensuring a seamless and positive experience throughout the buying or selling process.
• Assist in the preparation of marketing materials and presentations to effectively showcase properties and services.
• Monitor and report on partnership performance, providing insights and recommendations for improvement to senior management.

• Active real estate license in the state of Illinois
• Proven experience as a real estate agent or realtor
• Strong knowledge of the Chicago real estate market
• Excellent communication and negotiation skills
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team
• Proficient in using real estate CRM software and MLS systems
• Strong organizational and time-management skills
• Customer-focused with a commitment to providing exceptional service
• Ability to build and maintain strong client relationships
• Willingness to work flexible hours, including evenings and weekends
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
