Your Path to Exclusive Territory
Every successful real estate practice is built on local expertise. You know your market—the neighborhoods that are up-and-coming, the school districts that families prioritize, the hidden challenges that out-of-area agents miss. What if families relocating to your area could find you directly, without sorting through dozens of competing agents?
That’s exactly what the Hometown USA Real Estate broker application makes possible. Apply for the counties you serve, and if approved, those territories become exclusively yours.
Why Brokerages Join Our Network
The real estate industry has a referral problem. Traditional networks blast leads to multiple agents who then compete on response time rather than expertise. Families get bombarded with calls. Agents waste time chasing leads that five other people are also chasing. Nobody wins.
We do it differently. One brokerage per county means:
No competition for your leads. When a family is relocating to your county and submits an inquiry through our platform, that inquiry comes to you—and only you.
Quality over quantity. Families using our map are actively researching relocation. These aren’t cold leads scraped from unclear sources; they’re warm connections from people who want local expertise.
Nationwide reach. Families relocating from anywhere in the country can discover your brokerage. You’re not limited to local advertising—you’re visible to everyone planning a move to your area.
The Application Itself
The form is designed to collect what we need without wasting your time:
Brokerage Details
- Company name (required)
- Broker license number (helps us verify credentials)
- Years in business (experience indicator)
- Company website (so we can learn more about you)
Territory Selection Here’s the exciting part. Type a county or state name into the search field, and matching options appear. Select every county where you want exclusive territory. The interface shows you which counties are available and which have already been claimed—no applying for territories you can’t get.
Contact Information
- Your name (first and last)
- Email address (this is where we’ll send your verification link)
- Phone number (optional, but helpful for questions)
That’s it. No lengthy questionnaires, no essay questions, no credit card at this stage.
What Happens When You Submit
You’ll receive an email with a verification link. Click it to confirm your email address and officially submit your application for review.
From there, our team evaluates your credentials and county selections. This typically takes 1-2 business days. If approved, you’ll receive a payment link to complete your subscription setup. Once payment processes, your counties go live on the map.
The whole process—from application to active listing—can happen in days, not weeks.
The Benefits Sidebar
While you’re filling out the form, the sidebar reminds you what you’re joining:
Exclusive Territory — One brokerage per county eliminates competition for leads in your area.
Nationwide Visibility — Our interactive map puts you in front of families relocating from anywhere.
Team Management — Once active, invite your agents to join your team, manage leads together, and track referrals.
Are You an Agent?
The broker application is for brokerage owners and designated brokers who want to claim county territories. If you’re an individual agent looking to join an existing brokerage that’s already part of our network, there’s a separate path for you.
Look for the link at the bottom of the form: “Are you an agent looking to join an existing brokerage on our network? Apply as an agent instead.”
That route connects you with your broker rather than requiring you to set up independent territories.
Questions? We’re Here
Pre-application questions are welcome. The application page includes a direct phone number for inquiries. If you’re unsure whether this is right for your practice, or if you have questions about territories, pricing, or the process—reach out before you apply. We’d rather help you make an informed decision than have you discover issues after you’ve invested time.
Ready to Claim Your Territory?
The application takes about five minutes. The opportunity lasts as long as you maintain your subscription. Families relocating to your area deserve a local expert. Make sure that expert is you.
Your counties are waiting.
