250+ professionals — not just agents, not just investors. Both.

The Old Way Is Broken

The industry tells you to pick a lane. Be an agent OR an investor. Never both. We say that's the biggest lie in real estate.

Brokerages Ban Creative Deals

Traditional brokerages prohibit wholesaling, wraps, and subject-to. You're forced to leave money on the table — or hide what you do.

Investor Groups You Can't Trust

Facebook groups full of strangers with no accountability. No ethics. No standards. Who are these people you're supposed to partner with?

Forced to Pick a Lane

Agent or investor. Licensed or free. The industry says you can't be both — and you're leaving your full potential on the table either way.

We built Black Sheep Broker because we knew there had to be a better way.

We Don't Buy Into the Myth

Sleazy investors vs. proper agents? That's not real. We're professionals through and through — and we're proving that real estate works better when you can do it all.

Your License. Your Rules.

Every creative strategy — supported and supervised. Wholesale Monday, list a property Tuesday, close a subject-to Wednesday. Your license becomes a superpower, not a limitation.

The Hub Has Your Back.

CRM, deal tools, 50+ courses, Monday Motivation calls, and a community of 250+ agents doing creative deals every day. You're never figuring it out alone.

CRM 50+ Courses Deal Tools Weekly Calls

People You Can Actually Trust.

Not a Facebook group of strangers. 250+ licensed professionals who hold each other accountable, share real knowledge, and partner on real deals. This is a higher standard.

Accountability Partnerships Trust

When you combine a license with investing knowledge, you become market-proof. You make more money. And you surround yourself with people who operate at a higher standard.

How We Stack Up Against Traditional Brokerages

Side-by-side comparison of what you get — and what you give up.

Feature Traditional 70/30 Split Brokerage Black Sheep Flat Fee Brokerage
Commission Structure 30% goes to broker 100% yours $400 flat per transaction
Monthly Cost $50–$300/mo desk fees $199/mo License + everything included
E&O Insurance $35–$100 per transaction Included, $0 extra
Creative Deal Types Prohibited Fully supported
CE Classes Extra cost ($100–$400/yr) Included
Investor Community Not available 250+ agent network
Contract Lock-In Annual contracts common Cancel anytime

At a 70/30 brokerage, a $10,000 commission costs you $3,000. Here, it costs you $400.

That's $2,600 more per deal — straight to your pocket.

The Math Speaks for Itself

Same $10,000 commission. Completely different outcomes.

Pricing Questions? We've Got Answers.

Everything you need to know about our straightforward fee structure.

Are there any hidden fees or additional costs?

No. $199/month and $400 per transaction — that's it. No desk fees, no transaction coordinator fees, no marketing fees, no E&O insurance surprises. What you see is exactly what you pay.

Do I have to pay the monthly fee if I don't close any deals?

Yes, the $199/month covers your active license sponsorship plus access to everything: CE classes, Hub community, broker support, and creative deal guidance — regardless of your transaction volume. All the tools you need, even during slow months.

How do creative deals affect pricing?

Creative deals (wholesaling, subject-to, wraps, fix & flip) follow the same flat $400 transaction fee. Whether it's a traditional listing or a creative investment deal, the fee is identical. No penalty for being creative with your business.

How does this compare to a traditional brokerage split?

On a $10,000 commission, a typical 70/30 brokerage leaves you with about $6,870 after their split plus desk fees and E&O. With Black Sheep Broker you keep $9,600 — that's $2,600 more on a single deal. Do the math on your annual volume.

Is there a long-term contract or lock-in period?

No long-term contracts. Your sponsorship is month-to-month. You can transfer your license out at any time — we don't trap you. We keep you because you want to stay, not because you're stuck.

Built by Professionals, for Professionals

We started this movement because we believed real estate professionals deserve better.

Broker · TREC #572467

Dan and Angie watched talented agents walk away from licensing because traditional brokerages told them they couldn't invest creatively. They watched investors avoid getting licensed because they were told brokers would trap them. Both were wrong.

So they built a brokerage where agents and investors are the same person — professionals who refuse to choose. Together, they've created a community of 250+ professionals who operate at a higher standard.

Angie leads the brokerage and educates agents on creative strategies. Dan runs operations and strategy. They built this for people like you.
