United Real Estate is debuting a program to assist agents looking to purchase investment properties. The brokerage announced the launch of its United Residential Investment (URESI) Program on Wednesday.
United describes the program as a “comprehensive offering that empowers its agents to build long-term wealth and financial stability by becoming residential real estate investor-entrepreneurs.”
The proprietary program was developed exclusively for United agents and it helps agents through the process of using their real estate experience and knowledge to build portfolios of investment properties.
According to the release, the program is centered around an interactive community of agents, who are all led by experienced residential real estate investors. The program includes mentorship, as well as 14 new interactive courses, underwriting models, live deal-making events, workshops, on-demand resources, lending, insurance and connections with remodeling partners.
“Our agents now have a community of like-minded investment-curious agents, experienced agent investor professionals and the tools to create their own income and wealth-producing portfolios,” Dan Duffy, the CEO of United Real Estate Group, said in a statement.
The company said the program is designed to help agents not only boost their income, but also build generational wealth for their families and communities. Due to this, the brokerage said it aligns with its core values of “Family, Excellence, Fiscal Responsibility and Seeing Things Differently.”
Duffy said this is the most exciting product launch he has been a part of in his 30 years of leading global companies.
“United exists for one and only one purpose: to improve the financial trajectory of our agents’ and brokers’ careers and lives,” Duffy said. “We don’t believe any other national firm has ever offered a program like this to its agents. It’s a one-of-a-kind program that presents a massive investment by United and a massive opportunity for our agents to benefit from property appreciation, cash flow and increased income. Real estate agents are uniquely positioned to succeed because of their insider market knowledge, ability to secure properties before other investors and, when trained, the ability to recognize high-yield rental opportunities. We are thrilled to bring the URESI community to our existing agents and will provide the program to new agents as they join one of our affiliated brokerages across the country.”
The program is part of United’s financial wellness program for agents, which includes things like healthcare plans for independent contractors, retirement and wealth management services, estate & trust planning, investment vehicles and its agent compensation plans.
