The Engel & Völkers Referral Platform
We invite you to share your qualified referrals globally!
The Referral Platform allows you to digitally share and view information on the Engel & Völkers network referrals that you place or receive.
Before placing a referral, especially one to another country, it’s important to understand and clarify these key points.
The most important element of a successful referral is clear and complete communication upfront to avoid assumptions and misunderstandings. While the potential referral fee is important to negotiate and understand, the primary goal of placing a referral should be client service. Whether sent or received, a successful referral enhances your reputation and creates opportunities for more business in the future.
Simple, fast, transparent.
You are passionate about supporting your clients and customers, even when they require expertise and assistance with real estate matters far beyond your market area. With the Referral Platform, you can connect with the appropriate experts within the Engel & Völkers network to place a referral and be notified when it closes.
Before inputting all details about your client in the Referral Platform, identify the shop associated with the address (if it is a listing referral) or the shop(s) responsible for the area(s) where your client may purchase. Use the Shop Locator to identify the right destination(s) for your referral.
Once all potentially relevant shops are identified, connect with them by phone and/or email to discuss the referral and negotiate the referral fee. Once the key details related to the referral are agreed, submitting it through the Referral Platform is quick and easy!
