Mid-Year Check-In: Are You Where You Expected to Be?
The halfway point of the year is a great time to pause, reflect, and ask yourself some tough—but necessary—questions:
Are you happy with your current brokerage?
Are you hitting the goals you set back in January?
Are you growing your business… or just surviving?
At Great Lakes Real Estate, we talk to agents all the time who realize—often too late—that they’ve spent another year stuck in the same cycle: too many fees, too little support, and not enough personal growth. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
But here’s the good news: You still have time to turn things around.
What Makes Great Lakes Different?
We’re not a big-box brokerage with red tape and franchise fees. We’re a local company built by agents, for agents—and our model is built to help you keep more of your hard-earned commission while giving you real tools to grow your business.
Here’s what you get at Great Lakes:
100% commission after your $10K cap
No franchise fees, desk fees, or hidden costs
Leads, business cards, lawn signs & E&O insurance included
Personal website and listing domain names at no charge
In-house aerial photography, tech support, and office space
Real broker support—from someone who’s actually in the office
Agent referral bonus: $100 per transaction for 12 months
It’s Not Too Late to Make This Your Year
We believe every agent deserves to be more than just a number. At Great Lakes Real Estate, you’re part of a team—and your success is our success.
