Platform Setup Steps

Trigger

A licensed real-estate professional affirmatively requests or permits partner updates and the relationship passes RESPA, licensing, privacy, and fair-lending review.

Segment

Permissioned licensed real-estate partners with approved relationship status, excluding unresolved compliance, complaint, compensation, or no-contact issues.

Delay

Send only when the information is current and under the approved partner cadence.

Reply owner: Licensed partner owner and compliance reviewer responsible for RESPA, fair lending, licensing, co-marketing, and suppression.

  1. Verify permission, partner license/role, relationship status, current service facts, and compliance approval.
  2. Insert informational resources, consumer-choice statement, and no-value-for-referrals boundary.
  3. Send and route every co-marketing, sponsorship, referral, event, or data-sharing question for separate review.

Stop conditions

  • Stop on stop-updates, opt-out, license/role change, complaint, compliance hold, or active review.
  • Stop if service information or licensed area changes.
  • Stop automation when value exchange, shared marketing, consumer data, or referral expectations are discussed.

Before You Send

Note: there are laws and regulations around this. Please make sure you follow any applicable rules before sending.

Subject Line Variations

  • Current borrower-service information from {{brokerage_name}}

    Status-precise control without teaser rate or approval language.

  • Mortgage process information for your clients

    Alternative emphasizing the secure decision task.

  • Current service standards from {{brokerage_name}}

    Alternative for an established borrower conversation.

Mistakes To Avoid

  • Offering marketing credits for closed-loan referrals

    Value tied to settlement-service referrals can violate RESPA.

    Use instead: Provide untied factual service information and require separate review for any arrangement.

  • Sharing borrower progress without authorization

    It exposes nonpublic information and may exceed the partner's role.

    Use instead: Use authorized transaction-specific communication channels.

Sequence Placement

Use as a low-frequency professional update. Any referral, co-marketing, sponsorship, data, or value discussion leaves automation for documented compliance review.
