Fencing → Realty
The FSBO sign spotted on a job site.
A fence crew is three houses down from a For Sale By Owner sign that just went up. One tap logs it, and you're talking to a seller before the first agent's postcard hits their mailbox.
Tampa Bay Chapter · Partner seat · Open now
This page could be
your realty partner page.
The realty partner seat in the Tampa Bay chapter has no business seated in it. When one clears verification, references, and the chapter vote, this exact URL becomes their member page: profile, services, specials, reviews, and a quote button pointed at their phone.
Everything below is what the seat is actually worth: how leads reach you, the math on the dues, and the five steps to apply.
Reserved
The realty partner member page, waiting on a name.
No placeholder company, no stock logo, no fake reviews. The slot is empty until a business earns it, and this is the shell that becomes theirs on day one.

What the seat actually delivers
How realty partner work finds you here.
Every other seated trade has techs and reps inside homes across Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Brandon. When they see realty partner work, they log it, and it routes to the one business holding this slot.
HVAC → Realty
"We're thinking about selling next spring."
Homeowners tell their HVAC tech things they'd never tell an agent. When a member's tech hears it on a service call, that conversation becomes your warmest possible listing lead, with consent, logged and routed.
Every trade → Realty
The pre-list punch list, staffed instantly.
Your walkthrough turns up paint, flooring, a dead garage door opener, and a leaning fence. Instead of a vendor rolodex and a week of phone tag, one punch list routes to four vetted members, and your listing hits the market on schedule.
And it runs the other way
Every listing walkthrough and inspection report you touch is a bundle of contractor work with a closing date attached. Route it through the chapter and your buyers and sellers earn credits toward the work, a closing gift that funds itself.
The workflow
Spot → route → quote → close → paid.
CRM agnostic. Leads land in the system you already use, and the chapter dashboard tracks every one from the moment it's spotted to the moment the referral fee settles.
01
A member spots it
Any chapter tech, rep, or affiliate on the property logs the opportunity from their phone in under a minute, photos, address, urgency, and homeowner consent captured at the source.
02
It routes to your trade
The chapter routes it to the one seated business in that category. You. No auction, no shared lead, no four-competitor race to call first.
03
You quote it hot
The quote goes out while the homeowner is still thinking about the problem, with the option to attach a limited-time chapter offer to create urgency.
04
It closes, won or lost
Every lead must resolve. Won with a job value, or lost with a documented reason the chapter can audit. Nothing goes dark on the dashboard.
05
The referral fee settles
Collective Trust escrows the fee and remits it company to company. Clean for the books, clean for taxes, no member chasing another member for money.
The math
What the realty partner seat has to return.
Starts with typical ticket and close rates for this trade, drag the inputs to your own numbers and every figure below updates live. Not a guarantee, just a way to check whether the dues can pencil for your business.
Monthly dues
$150 flat
Onboarding offset
$10 per opted-in customer

100% of onboarding
Per-lead cash
$0 (credits instead)
How partners get paid
Per-lead cash payments run into real legal restrictions in your industry, so partners don't receive them. Instead, work you originate earns homeowner credits issued to your clients, redeemable with any seated business in the chapter. The Collective rewards your customers for their loyalty, and that loyalty comes back to you, with onboarding offset $10 for every customer from your book who joins the opt-in pool, down to $0.

Onboarding drops $10 for every customer from your book who joins the opt-in pool, so bring 50 consented homeowners and it's fully waived. Referral value is issued as homeowner credits, never per-lead cash.
