Property Management Referral Program Exclusively for Licensed Real Estate Agents

Earn Beer Money for the Life of the Relationship!

At ROOST Real Estate Co., we believe great relationships are worth more than any one transaction. That’s why we created Hey Chris, Buy Me a Beer! – our property management referral program designed just for licensed real estate professionals like you.

What’s In It For You? 

Cold, hard cash… that’s what!

When you refer your investor clients to ROOST Property Management, you’ll earn initial rewards:

  • $250 for every single-family home you refer that we sign up for management.
  • $100 per multi-family unit.
  • Max initial payout: $2,500 per property owner

You’ll also earn ongoing rewards for the life of the property owner’s relationship with ROOST:

  • $50 each time we renew a lease for a referred owner’s property
  • 25% of the lease-up fee each time we place a new tenant for a referred owner

We track your balance monthly, and you can request a payout any month your balance is $50 or more.

It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3…

Frequently Asked Questions 

Answers to the most common questions from partners

Can teams or brokerages enroll?
Yes—just tell us who should receive the statements, and we’ll pay the Broker of Record.

What if I refer multiple owners?
Great. Each owner is tracked separately for the initial cap; ongoing rewards accrue per property.

What happens if an owner adds more units later?
No new initial payout for that owner beyond the original $2,500 initial cap, but ongoing rewards (renewals & lease-ups) apply to added units we manage.

Will ROOST poach my sales business?
No. We manage; you handle sales. We document your preferred re-sale referral instructions at onboarding.
