Part 2: Not All Real Estate Teams Are Created Equal

Why Most Teams Fail Their Agents—and What We Do Differently

If you’ve ever thought, “Why would I give up part of my commission to be on a team?”—you’re not alone.

Truth is, most real estate teams prove that concern right.

But when done the right way—with the right leadership and support—a team can be the launchpad that turns your license into a thriving, scalable business. Here’s what to look for (and what to avoid).

💼 Most Teams Are Built for the Team Leader—Not for You

Let’s be real: many team leaders are just looking for agents to pass leads off to—because they don’t have the time or desire to keep up with their own overflow. But there’s no real system, no real coaching, and no long-term strategy for your business.

What starts out as an exciting opportunity quickly turns into a one-sided relationship:
➡️ You’re working hard
➡️ They’re collecting a split
➡️ You’re not getting the mentorship or growth you were promised

And worst of all?
➡️ If you ever leave, you’re starting from zero—again.

💡 The Ramsey Team Does Things Differently
