Pros
Honesty, integrity, and a culture of selfless service are what drew me to Fathom and makes me never want to leave. The 100% compensation model ensures that I can reinvest my earning in growing my own business instead of paying for expensive office space and mandatory fees like other firms. Fathom Realty is smart about investing in cutting-edge technology platforms that help me streamline my business and leverage my time in a way that has improved my quality of life.
Cons
Because Fathom does not have expensive offices with high overhead, some agents do not feel that they can be successful without the office environment both for them and their clients. Personally, I don't miss the mandatory meetings and office chatter that detract from daily activities that would actually help me grow my business. And my clients are happy to meet at a local coffee shop or in a home we are viewing together. The reality is that meeting at a real estate office does nothing for them or me. I would rather reinvest the commissions that I have been able to keep at Fathom in renting my own space if I found that I wasn't able to work independently or that it somehow helped my clients...but I have discovered that I don't need it and my clients don't either!
