Real Estate Client Referrals (RECR) LLC was formed in March of 2003 by a Re/Max Top Producer who was fed up with so-called lead generation services that promised a lot, but delivered next to nothing. Having been seriously discontented with the low quality of the leads, the huge fees associated with the companies in existance at the time, and the consistent way that the companies he used were out for themselves rather than out for him, he founded Real Estate Client Referrals to provide real estate agents with everything they would need to successfully market to internet referrals. RECR is NOT a real estate “lead generator” — We are a full-scale referral procurement agency with one goal in mind: To help you make money!

While the large “lead generation” companies are struggling, Real Estate Client Referrals LLC (RECR) is doing better then ever. Started in 2003 then RECR has wisely managed itself to larger gross revenues and more importantly larger profits EVERY YEAR since the start. The company has even managed to grow its profits through the recent down times in real estate. Meanwhile the competition is reporting record losses.
Vice President Jerrold Baxter says: “I think the reason we have been able to grow every year, even through the rough times, is because we have a simple concept that has been proven to work for our agents. We bring them genuine leads which are something every agent could always use more of.”
Started on a shoe string budget, the company immediately went on for success. The model has always been simple: match consumer clients, actively searching on the internet for a real estate need, to agents who can answer their need.
Real Estate Client Referrals has been matching agents with clients for six years. Yet, the number one complaint from consumers is that the agents didn’t respond to them.
The agents who know the value of proper follow up are making a killing not only with the RECR system, but with all of the real estate customers they interact with. These agents have learned the importance of giving the customer what they want WHEN they ask for it. This means the agent responds within minutes of receiving an inquiry. Even a response measured in a few hours time is often too long. The customer in many cases has already moved forward with another agent.
RECR continues to add new agents to its exclusive territories...where as other companies allow multiple agents to keep the same territory, Real Estate Client Referrals honors its long standing exclusivity to its agent and keeps just 1 agent per area. Furthermore, there are no monthly fees to the agent for maintaining the area. Instead the agent just pays for the clients they receive.
As the real estate industry continues to adapt itself to online customer acquisition, RECR is proudly positioned to help carry its team of agent customers to bigger and better times.

"In December of 2006 REAL ESTATE CLIENT REFERRALS sent me a buyer who wanted to buy, fix up and flip homes. I followed up with her by phone and then, emailed some listings. Within 30 days, she had found a property, closed on it, and my commission was $4,950. Not bad for the first lead! What I really like is that, not only did I earn a commission on the sale of the home, but will be listing the new remodel sometime later this month if all goes well. What I have found to be effective for follow up is the method I just explained, and will continue to use it with other new referrals sent my way. This was a quality lead and has already paid for my investment with REAL ESTATE CLIENT REFERRALS, and then some. I try to follow up with all new leads within 24 hours and by doing so with this buyer, the transaction took only 35 days. What is also kind of exciting is another buyer wants to flip properties with 2 other partners. It could continue to lead to other income that I hadn't planned on when first starting with the service. It could become a true bonus! What I have found compared to other lead sources, is REAL ESTATE CLIENT REFERRALS leads seem to be more of a "warm" lead, than other types. This always makes things easier at the front end, and the client is more willing to work with me. I feel the price I have paid for the service and the income received has already more than made this an excellent investment in my overall marketing program!"
Thanks Real Estate Client Referrals,

Amanda KI have been working with Real Estate Client Referrals for about 4 years now. I have tried others, and constantly have other companies calling me to jump on board with them, but I wouldn't leave Real Estate Client Referrals for anything! There are several things that I really love about REAL ESTATE CLIENT REFERRALS. First, is the number of leads that I know that I am guaranteed to get, and for a guaranteed price, there are no surprises! Because of how the system is set up, I can have a number of different areas that are all exclusive to me. I am fortunate to have a high volume of leads that come in every week, so much so, that I have had to hire buyer agents to help me deal with the volume of leads that come in every month. That's a nice problem for a REALTOR to have! Second, is the quality of the leads that I get. When the prospective buyer goes online, and checks out the site, it is made very clear to them that they will be contacted by an agent, so they are actually expecting my call. Furthermore, REAL ESTATE CLIENT REFERRALS contacts the individual a 2nd time before I get the lead to ensure that the information is confirmed, and that I am not going to receive a "bad" lead. I convert about 40% of the leads right away, meaning when I call them, they are ready and willing to go. A lot of these people either already own a home (double ending potential) or are looking to flip homes (long-term business from the buying and flipping process). About 30% are people who will be buying or selling, just not right away for one reason or another. However, by putting them on my database and keeping in touch, I eventually get the sales as I am probably one of the only realtors who have kept in touch while they get themselves prepared to buy. Lastly, would be the customer service and sales department I so much appreciate. They go out of their way to ensure that the leads are good, that I am kept up-to-date when I need to top up my account and that if I do run into any 'bad' leads, that I am credited back for those. Really, it is a 'no-lose' situation for me. The business that I generate from REAL ESTATE CLIENT REFERRALS usually makes up to about 40% of my total business year after year. This is revenue that I have generated over and above any of my other marketing systems, and does not include the commissions that I now earn from my buyers agents who are also working these leads that I give them. The key to this system being successful is ultimately down to the agent. Real Estate Client Referrals provides me with the prospect asking for information to make their purchase. However, unless I act quickly, contact the lead, build the relationship and close the deal, it doesn't matter what kind of system REAL ESTATE CLIENT REFERRALS has. I, like most agents, spend thousands of dollars every year on marketing and advertising, but how much of that actually converts into closed commissions? This system costs me far less money, and I know that I am guaranteed business - it really is that simple!

I just had a horrible experience with them as well. They said you could reject any lead, and when I received the first one (weeks AFTER I kept requesting leads from them) it wasn't viable. When I tried to reject it, they said I could not. When I tried to cancel the service, they resisted, and the credit card company would not reverse the charge. At that point, I contacted RECR again, and their response was:
"On 10 -28 -09 your credit card company upheld your chargeback in our favor we are finished with you."
Let us ALL be finished with them.
