... and how to get one on a budget.
I see it all the time. New Transaction Coordinators starting their business, setting everything up, and focusing on the wrong things. I see them focusing on things like “what should I name my business?” or “What should my logo look like?”
I mean yes, those are important things you need to decide on in your business. But one of the most crucial things you need in any service-based business such as Real Estate Transaction Coordinating is a contract with your clients.
You may be saying to yourself:
- It’s not that important because I am just starting out.
- I’ll wait to get my first few clients then I’ll invest in a contract written by an attorney.
- It’s going to be wayyyy too expensive to hire an attorney to customize a contract. for my business so I will just skip it for now.
- [Insert any other excuse you have here]
I can see where you are coming from but the reality is if you are serious about your Transaction Coordinator business, then you need to be serious about getting your business foundations set up correctly.
Having a contract for your clients to sign protects you from lawsuits and spells out all the legalities such as your compensation, late payment fee, independent contractor status, and so much more.
Why are these things important?
- It’s important to know your financial and legal interests are protected.
- You can sleep at night knowing your business is protected.
- You can focus on other important things like getting more clients.
I have saved a ton of money in my business using legal templates over the years and I felt so much better having the legalities in place for my website and business at a price I could afford.
I came up with a cost-effective solution for my students in the Transaction Coordinator Bootcamp that wanted a more customized legal contract written especially just for them plus a whole business legal bundle (more on the bundle later in this post) to protect their business all around.
I met attorney Amy Nesheim from Artful Contracts this past last year from a Facebook online business group we are both in.
I purchased several of her legal templates for my own business and website. I was a little nervous but I jumped in anyway and I can tell you her legal templates are ahhhmazing and an incredible value.
Then I got this brilliant idea!
I contacted Amy and ask if I could hire her to create and customize a special contract for my Transaction Coordinator Bootcamp students and other independent Transaction Coordinators that need a solid contract with their clients at an affordable price.
I am proud to announce to have partnered with Amy so I can bring these legal directly to you without any middle person involved. These are solely available in my TC Shop and NOWHERE else.
There is NOTHING out there like this. Seriously, you guys, nothing. If you were to hire an attorney to customize a contract for yourself and your business (which many do) you would spend 5X the amount of the price of this template.
Did I say NOTHING out there like this already??
I have been surprised to see how many Transaction Coordinators are not even using a contract with their clients and relying on the honor system. That's what gets you into trouble, my friend!
Amy and I got on a Zoom call and had a consultation to go over exactly what type of service a Transaction Coordinator provides and what things would need to be in the contract that is specific to the Transaction Coordinator and real estate industry.
Voila! That’s how the Real Estate Transaction Coordinator Service Agreement Template was born!
