REBFN is expanding across Florida to deliver the skills, training and support required to help real estate agents supplement their income and increase revenues.

Launched in October 2007, REBFN is hosting workshops throughout the state to train real estate professionals in the steps required to receive legal compensation for their services.  Through its 1-hour “Six Steps to a One-Stop Shop” workshop, REBFN teaches realtors how to complete the steps required by the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) and ultimately gain an edge over their competition with expanded service offerings. Agents can maintain better control of the sales and closing processes and generate additional revenue for themselves.

“In the current environment, realtors are facing a sluggish housing market, more competition and a decline in overall earnings,” said John Rodgers, president of REBFN and a 10-year real estate lending professional.  “By empowering realtors to perform these services for their clients, we’re helping them to not only increase revenues but also to differentiate themselves from their competition and provide their buyers with a comprehensive single-source for real estate and lending services.”
