Learn More About Equator REO Certification

Agents who are Certified sold 100% or 2X more properties on Equator in 2016.

Equator does not and cannot guarantee listings as a result of taking its Certification training or by purchasing Premium Placements, Visual Promotion or other optional Equator products. Asset management companies and loan servicers select their own agents and those selections are often based on factors besides Certification, Lead Areas and other Equator products including market conditions, relationships with agents and other factors. Being trained/certified on Equator and purchasing Lead Areas or other optional Equator products could help enhance the relationship(s) you have with your asset management companies and loan servicers but it is the agent’s responsibility to leverage their Equator products and other business development efforts to cultivate their relationship with any and all asset management companies and loan servicers that they desire to receive listings.

Approximately 32% of U.S.'s REO and Short Sale is supported on Equator.**

"As a busy REO broker, this platform has let me stream line communication in a transparent manner to my sellers and vendors. By doing so, Equator has created a more efficient and manageable sale process.

I had to add that Equator Certification and its Zip code/Premium Placement has been the key to my success. It has enabled me to generate more income and produce more sales in a shorter amount of time while providing excellent service. I would highly recommend this system along with its products and services to any serious real estate professional."

Brian W. Ziegenfuss 

Broker Manager, Remax Connection

"Having used Equator since 2008, I have seen it streamline the REO industry in a way that has allowed my office to work more efficiently, shortening my REO timelines by at least 20%! Performance is very important to me as is the ability to gain new clients.

My EQ Certification badge on my profile designates me as skilled on the EQ platform, and I invest in Premium Placement ZIP codes to market myself to Servicers that use Equator to search for listing agents. This allows me to maximize my profile, target my farm areas and position myself in front of the relevant decision makers 24-7.  This ability is absolutely necessary in order for my small business to continue to thrive."

Susan Speer 

Vendor Manager, Chronos Solutions

"Agent Certification is another thing that we [Servicers] look for because this indicates you've taken the time to learn and understand how to use the platform which is so important for a number of reasons. I can't tell you how many times during the day, people will call us because they have technical issues on how to use Equator. They can't fill out a BPO form correctly, they don't understand how tasks work, they're lost. So for us, having a good amount of Equator experience... is what we're looking for.
