Why Agents Partner
With Us
A commission that grows, not shrinks.
You start at a base rate, and it goes up with every client you send us in the same year — no cap.
Builds you can recommend with confidence.
Our own crews handle the work not a rotating bench of subcontractors — with honest timelines and a written, line-item cost breakdown before your client ever signs.
Referrals that are actually protected.
Register your client and you’re covered from day one. Even if they visit us first without mentioning you, we don’t use that as a reason to cut you out.
A team that picks up the phone.
During the build and after it. If your client has a question, they get a real answer, fast.
How the Commission Works
Every referral starts at a2.5% base commission — guaranteed, not negotiated case by case. Send us more than one client in a calendar year, and your rate climbs with each one, with no ceiling.
| Referral # | Commission Rate |
| 1st | 2.5% |
| 2nd | 3% |
| 3rd | 3.5% |
| 4th+ | 4.0% |
What that looks like in real dollars, at a few different price points:
From a modest first-time build to a sprawling luxury estate, the framework holds steady — and compensates you identically — across every bracket.
Getting Started Is Simple
Step 1
Register your client.
A quick call or short form before their first conversation with us. Takes a couple of minutes.
Step 2
Stay in the loop.
We keep you informed throughout — you’re never left guessing what’s happening with your client’s build.
Step 3
Get paid at closing.
Your full commission, at the rate you’ve earned, no renegotiating after the fact.
Step 4
Watch your rate climb.
Every new referral in the same calendar year bumps you up a tier.
Your Payout Timeline: What to Expect and When
We know “you’ll get paid at closing” isn’t specific enough when you’re trying to plan your own income. Here’s exactly what that looks like, step by step:
| Milestone | What Happens |
| Client registered & contract signed | Your commission rate is locked in at this point — based on your referral count for the year |
| During construction | Nothing owed yet — your commission accrues against the final contract value, regardless of how long the build takes |
| Certificate of occupancy issued / final closing | This is the trigger event for payout |
| Within 7 business days of closing | Commission is paid directly to your brokerage |
FAQs
Do you only build luxury homes?
No. We build across the range — from entry-level custom homes to high-end luxury projects. This program works the same way regardless of your client’s budget.
What if my client visits you without mentioning my name?
We’d always rather hear from you first — registering ahead of time is the cleanest way to protect your commission. But if a client shows up and doesn’t mention you right away, we don’t automatically assume you’re out of the picture. If you’ve done the work, we stand by protecting your commission.
When does my commission rate reset?
Each calendar year. The sooner you start referring, the sooner you’re climbing toward the higher tiers.
Is there a cap on how high the commission can go?
No. It keeps climbing with every referral in the same year — there’s no maximum tier.
Will my client be handed off to subcontractors I don’t know anything about?
No. We build with our own crews rather than a rotating bench of outside subs, which is also why we can give your clients a realistic timeline instead of an overly optimistic one.
What areas do you build in?
Huntsville, Madison, Harvest, Meridianville, Hazel Green, Owens Cross Roads, Hampton Cove, Brownsboro, New Market, and out toward Guntersville — the same growth corridors where your buyers are already looking.
When will I actually get paid?
Within 7 business days of your client’s final closing — see the payout timeline above for the full breakdown. Your commission is calculated on the final signed contract value, so you’ll know the number well before closing day.
If the build runs behind schedule, does that delay or reduce my commission?
It may shift when you’re paid, since payout is tied to closing rather than the original estimated completion date — but it never changes how much you’re paid. A delayed build doesn’t reduce your commission rate, and it doesn’t cost you your spot in that year’s referral tier. Construction delays (weather, permitting, material lead times, or client-requested changes) are never held against you.
What if there’s a problem or dispute during the build?
That’s between us and the client — not something you need to referee. If an issue comes up, we handle it directly with your client and keep it out of your hands entirely. Your job was the introduction; ongoing communication and problem-solving during the build is ours. We’d rather you stay the trusted advisor who made a great recommendation, not get pulled into a construction dispute.
What if the client backs out or cancels before the contract is signed?
If a contract is never signed, there’s no commission to pay — same as any standard real estate referral. If your client signs and later cancels partway through construction, we’ll work with you directly on next steps depending on the situation; that’s not a standard scenario, but it’s one we’ll always talk through honestly rather than leave you guessing.
Do I need to be exclusive with Redstone Ridge to participate?
No. Refer us when we’re the right fit for your client — that’s it.
