Golden Handoff Author Nick Krautter on Building an Agent or Team Exit Strategy


Listen Later

This week on the RealTrending podcast, Tracey Velt sits down with Nick Krautter, author of The Golden Handoff and a real estate broker based in Portland, Oregon. Nick shares his expertise on the process of selling your book of business and planning a good exit strategy if you are ready to phase out of your business. 

Nick and Tracey talk about the potential challenges and pitfalls you can expect in the transition period and the most effective way to structure a potential deal to make sure that you are getting your value’s worth out of your database. He also talks about partial handoffs, where retiring agents can gradually step back from the business while maintaining involvement, and emphasizes the importance of selecting the right adopting agent to prepare for an eventual sale.

Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn:

  • Finding the right adopting agent is crucial for a successful golden handoff.
  • Partial handoffs allow retiring agents to phase out of the business while still maintaining some involvement.
  • The structure of deals in golden handoffs is typically based on referral fees.
  • Retiring agents should keep their databases up to date to ensure a smooth transition and ensure they are not underestimating their value.
