WREX services:

Referring Agent Services. Real estate professionals may join our network in order to leverage outbound referrals (“Referring Agents”). If we include your referred Customer as part of WREX’s referral network (a “Qualified Customer”), and one of your Qualified Customer referrals results in the close of a real estate transaction by one of our Selling Agents for which we are paid (each a “Qualified Transaction”), we will pay you a percentage of our fee.
Selling Agent Services. Real estate professionals who meet certain criteria may receive an invitation to join our network and be eligible to receive referrals (“Selling Agents”). If you are an eligible Selling Agent, we will work to match you to Customers. If you receive a referral from WREX that results in a completed transaction, you agree to pay WREX a portion of your Commission (defined in the Payments and Compensation section below).
