What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Exit's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, to be eligible to participate in Exit's Sponsoring program, all non-licensed persons under written contract with a Franchisee, a Subfranchisor or Exit are required to virtually attend and successfully complete Exit's E-Boss online training course. This prerequisite applies to receiving Exit Sponsoring Bonuses.
To continue receiving Sponsoring Bonuses after retiring from the real estate business, an Exit Associate must sign an Affidavit stating that they will not work in any capacity for a competing real estate company. The Exit Associate will continue to be affiliated with Exit under the umbrella of the Franchise or Subfranchise that formerly held the Exit Associate's license or contract, with the approval of the Franchisee or Subfranchise.
All Exit Associates are automatically eligible to receive Sponsoring Bonuses at a rate of 10% until December 31st of the year they join Exit. For those who join after October 1st, the 10% eligibility extends to the end of the joining year and the entire following calendar year. However, if an Exit Associate does not close a minimum of eight Transaction Sides or earn at least $40,000 in gross closed Commissions per calendar year (pro-rated in the first year and extended for those joining after October 1st), they will be designated "part-time" for the following calendar year. This minimum sales production requirement does not apply to Franchisees or Subfranchisors.
