Comparing Referral Brokerages: Florida Referral Group vs. CrossView Referral Realty
If you’re looking for a referral-only brokerage, Florida Referral Group (FRG) is likely on your radar—and for good reason. They’ve built a clear, agent-friendly platform for professionals who want to keep their license active without practicing full-time. At CrossView Referral Realty, we deeply respect what FRG offers and think it’s worth comparing your options so you can find the best fit for your goals.
Here’s what you should know if you’re choosing between FRG and CrossView as your referral brokerage.
Florida Referral Group: A Solid Option for Referral-Only Agents
Florida Referral Group is a licensed Florida brokerage focused solely on referral agents. Their model is built to support agents who’ve stepped back from listings and showings but still want to earn from their real estate connections.
Key strengths of FRG include:
Referral-Only Simplicity: You don’t list homes or work with buyers—your sole role is to refer clients to active agents.
State & National Reach: Although based in Florida, FRG agents can refer clients anywhere in the U.S.
Established Infrastructure: Agents receive access to a portal to manage referral activity, receive updates, and stay organized.
Commission Options: FRG offers flexible pricing:
$0/month plan with a 10% brokerage split on referrals
$199/month plan with a 5% brokerage split
Annual Fee: $295 to remain active, giving agents access to systems and support.
FRG is a great choice for agents looking for structure, flexibility, and the backing of a referral-first brand.
Where CrossView Referral Realty Differs
If you’re comparing options, CrossView Referral Realty offers an equally agent-friendly model with a few key differences that might suit your needs even better—especially if you're cost-conscious or looking for personalized support.
Here’s how CrossView stands out:
One-Time Fee, No Annual Dues: We charge a single $60 license transfer fee—and that’s it. No annual brokerage fees.
Straightforward Commission Split: We take a portion of the referral commission you receive, but there are no monthly or annual platform costs. This allows you to keep your license active and earn income without ongoing overhead.
We’ll Help Find the Right Agent: If your client doesn’t already have an agent in mind, we’ll match them with a trusted, experienced professional anywhere in the U.S.
Nationwide Flexibility: Like FRG, you can refer clients across the country with confidence.
Low-Pressure, High-Support Environment: You stay licensed and connected without production requirements or quotas.
In short: CrossView is ideal for agents who want to stay active, send referrals as often as they’d like, and have a hands-on partner helping them connect their clients to quality agents.
Final Thoughts: Choose the Brokerage That Fits Your Goals
Both Florida Referral Group and CrossView Referral Realty offer strong, referral-only models built around flexibility, compliance, and agent autonomy. If you're looking for a structured platform with active systems and are comfortable with annual fees and splits, FRG is a great option. If you're more focused on minimizing upfront cost and having hands-on help placing your referrals, CrossView might be a better fit.
Either way, it’s a win for agents who want to stay licensed and earn from their networks without returning to full-time sales.
