A: In many cases, the annual administration fee and any home office or mileage expenses can be used as a tax write-off. In some cases, the cost of your administration fee will be off-set by the savings you'll receive from your tax return. Consult with your CPA if you have any questions or concerns.

Q: How do I know if your company is legitimate?

A: Go to to the Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation's website, license # CQ1036946. In this section you have two options.

Two, click on "view related license information" you will see the many active licensees who have trusted us to place their license with our firm. Also take a look at our Facebook page here, view the feedback, conversations, and photos that take place on this page. Another great option is Google. Go to www.Google.com, type in our company name and research the internet exposure that we have. See our many great testimonials here.

Q: If I'm the one buying or selling, can I still earn a referral fee?

A: Yes, you would refer yourself out just like a regular referral. Park Place will make sure you are in the right hands with a top agent to handle the entire transaction for you. You would then earn the referral fee once the transaction closes.

Q: If I am coming to Park Place Realty Network from full-time status, can I maintain my membership in the local Board of Realtors and/or multiple listing services?

A: No, as a Network Associate, you will no longer have the expenses of those memberships. We are not members of any Board or MLS and is how we are able to get around those associations requiring our agents to pay those fees.

*But, you are allowed to be an active, full-time Realtor in another state that you might have a license in. We have many agents who are full-time Realtors in another state and refer out their outside business through Park Place.

Q: How do I know that you are referring my prospect to the right agent?

A: Park Place specializes in real estate referrals. We have several ways we go about finding the top agent in each market. From recent sales data on over 1 million active real estate agents to established relationships with relocation directors who work for the largest real estate companies in the industry. Our main job is to make sure our referrals are working with the best agents in the business.

Q: Can I choose the agent who will receive my referral leads?

A: Yes. We place no restrictions on to whom, or to which brokerage company, you can refer your leads, as long as they are willing to work with our program. Their broker would just have to be ok paying a referral fee of 25% if the sales price is below $200,000 or 30% for anything higher than $200,000, only if the transaction closes, on the buy or sell side, but not both.

Q: Can I send my real estate referrals out Internationally, really?

A: Yes, we have the resources to find and refer out your referrals to top brokers all over the world. Referrals do vary however from country to country as real estate laws are different in each country. Park Place is not involved in the real estate transaction whatsoever, we are strictly referring to another real estate company for a referral fee.

Q: Are you able to convert my real estate commission to U.S. currency if it is an International referral?

A: Yes, Park Place will convert the real estate commission to U.S. currency at no cost. Keep in mind that the exchange rate will vary depending on which country the check is coming from. You can get an idea on current exchange rates here. Checks can sometimes take up to 30 days to clear, but usually much sooner.

Q: What is the advantage of keeping my license active?

A: You are not legally able to collect any type of Real Estate commissions or referral fees by staying Inactive. Your Real Estate license needs to be under a Broker in order to earn a real estate commission. By staying inactive, you are paying fees to the state and real estate schools for CE and are not allowed to earn any type of real estate commission in this status.

Q: How can you legally collect a real estate commission outside the state/country you're licensed in?

A: Referral fees are paid between broker to broker and are completely legal. We are referring real estate business to a broker in a state or country that is legally licensed to practice there and we do not interfere with the transaction whatsoever once it is referred out.

Q: Can I continue as a referral associate if I move out of state or even the U.S.?

A: Yes, the majority of our agents live outside of the state that they are licensed in. We have active agents who live as far as Japan and they send their referral business out worldwide and collect the referral fee.
