Buffini & Company and Colibri Real Estate have entered into an exclusive agreement to provide the real estate market with a holistic, end-to-end ecosystem of education, training and resources primarily focused on new and aspiring real estate agents. Both companies see the partnership as a pathway to help bridge the gap between passing the exam and building a business in the critical early stages of a real estate career.
The partnership will roll out over the next few months, starting today with North Carolina’s Superior School of Real Estate, one of Colibri Real Estate’s regional schools. Students will have access to new materials, including career advice videos from Buffini & Company, North America’s largest training and coaching company, as well as an agent starter kit to prepare for a career in the real estate profession.
“Our passion and purpose is to help real estate professionals at every stage of their career, and one incredible way to live that passion is to partner with legendary businessman and real estate professional Brian Buffini and its coaching company to inspire our new and future agents,” said Jennifer Dixson Hoff, President of Colibri Real Estate, the nation’s leading provider of real estate learning solutions. impressive in preparing real estate professionals to be career ready and plan step by step for success. We are thrilled to partner and look forward to giving our students exclusive access to the best coaching and training programs in the profession. »
“Bringing together the leader in licensing education with the leader in real estate coaching creates an unprecedented pathway for student and agent success,” said Buffini & Company Founder and President Brian Buffini. “The Buffini & Company network executed hundreds of thousands of transactions last year. We are delighted to partner with Colibri and their wide range of real estate professionals, giving them the opportunity to take advantage of the systems of reference, training and coaching services that have propelled the success of our members for over 25 years.
“Colibri is recognized as the leader in its field and enjoys an excellent reputation in the industry,” said Dermot Buffini, Managing Director of Buffini & Company. “We share a similar mission, which is to help our customers build great businesses and live great lives. I was more than impressed with the quality of the people at Colibri and their commitment to helping their clients succeed – they are our kind of people! »
The partnership with Colibri further extends Buffini & Company’s mission to reach as many agents as possible, demonstrated earlier through its partnership with the National Association of REALTORSⓇ (NAR) in 2020. “Eighty-five percent of agents fail the first five years in business,” says Dermot Buffini. “Buffini & Company is committed to significantly reducing this number. With Colibri laying off so many new agents every year, this is a great opportunity for Buffini & Company to reach these agents earlier in their careers and provide them with a strong start.
According to Hoff, Buffini & Company is a “natural fit” to help agents at the start of their real estate career. “Students in their educational experience often need a boost of encouragement to complete their program, outside of what their instructor can provide,” she explained. “Also, new agents entering the field are often overwhelmed, wondering where they should focus at the start of their career. This program does both. Not only do students learn the content they need to master to pass the exam to start their careers, but the bonus material featuring Brian focuses on both encouraging and helping students to see each other after completing their program.
Dermot Buffini also believes the partnership will help serve a much bigger purpose. “I truly believe we can positively transform the real estate industry through our partnership with Colibri and in conjunction with our efforts with NAR, reaching agents at all stages of their careers and helping them build successful businesses at long term,” he said. “The future health of the real estate industry will depend on agents and their commitment to providing a world-class experience for their clients. Together, Buffini & Company and Colibri will do everything in their power to make this happen for the agents we serve.
