LPT Realty - How to Join

RealTrends Top 0.5% Nationwide

You Don't Need Another Brokerage.
You Need a Smarter Business Model.

For real estate agents who want to keep more commission, stop paying out-of-pocket for marketing, and finally operate with real systems and support.

I'm Christine Gwinnup — I built my business through marketing strategy, negotiation strength, and systems that scale. If you're evaluating LPT Realty, eXp, REAL, or your current brokerage — here's the clear, honest breakdown.
The Problem

Why Serious Agents Are Re-Evaluating Their Brokerage

High Splits + Monthly Fees

You're producing — but still writing checks just to stay in business.

Paying for Your Own Marketing

Your listing presentation depends on your personal credit card.

Generic "Support"

Training calls without real implementation or accountability.

No Scalable Systems

You're building transactions, not a business.

The Model

How the LPT Model Actually Works

Let's simplify what most recruiters overcomplicate.

Step 01

Keep what you earn. Clear cap. No signup or monthly fees.

Step 02

What Agents Say

Real Agents. Real Results.

Don't take my word for it. Here's what agents who made the move actually say.

★★★★★
"The numbers alone made the decision easy — I kept almost $14,000 more my first year after switching. But what I didn't expect was the listing marketing. I show up to appointments with materials that make me look like I run a luxury firm. That's changed how sellers see me before I even open my mouth."

★★★★★
"Christine didn't just hand me a CRM login and say good luck. She sat down, built my follow-up sequences with me, and showed me exactly how to run my pipeline. Within three months I had more systems in place than I'd built in five years on my own. That kind of mentorship is rare."

★★★★★
"I was nervous about leaving my brokerage — I'd been there for years and it felt risky. The transition ended up being the smoothest part. Christine handled everything, my pending deals transferred clean, and I hit the ground running. My only regret is not doing it sooner."

Common Questions

Everything You're Wondering — Answered

There are no monthly fees, no signup fees, and no desk fees. On the Fixed Plan, agents pay $500 per transaction plus a $195 admin fee per transaction, capped at $5,000 per year. Once you hit cap, you keep 100% of your commission for the rest of the year.

LPT offers a 100% commission option with no monthly fees and includes marketing support per listing. eXp charges $85/month with an 80/20 split to cap. REAL charges $500/year with an 85/15 split. The biggest differentiator is that LPT includes marketing tools and collateral at no extra cost — and your experience depends heavily on the leadership you align with.

No. Revenue share is completely optional. Many agents at LPT focus entirely on production and never recruit a single person. The model works whether you want to be a solo agent or build a team.

Hands-on mentorship including listing marketing systems, CRM setup and automations, business planning, cap analysis, and accountability. This is implementation-based support — not motivational training calls. We build it with you.

Yes. LPT has a straightforward onboarding process for transferring active listings and pending transactions. I'll walk you through the transition step by step so nothing falls through the cracks.

This Is Not For Everyone

If you're happy paying monthly fees — stay.
If you don't want systems — stay.
If you prefer doing marketing alone — stay.
If you're unwilling to evolve — stay.

But if you want clarity, structure, profitability, and momentum — let's talk.

What is it like to join LPT Realty in Colorado?

I'm licensed with LPT Realty, and I get asked about it constantly by Colorado agents thinking about switching. The short version: it's a cloud-based national brokerage with no physical offices, built around letting agents choose their own compensation structure rather than locking everyone into one split. For Colorado specifically, that matters because you're not paying for office space you'll never use in Fort Collins or Denver — everything runs through the brokerage's online platform.

LPT operates in all 50 states and has grown fast since launching in 2022, which means there's a real, active agent community here in Colorado, not just a national brand with nobody local. If you're already licensed here — remember, Colorado requires 168 hours of pre-licensing education, among the toughest requirements in the country — the barrier to entry as an agent is already high, and I think that filters for people who take this seriously.

The compensation model, plainly

LPT gives you a choice between two plans. The Business Builder plan is a flat $500 fee per transaction, capped at $5,000 a year — after that, you're not paying the brokerage anything further on the split side. The Rev Share Partner plan is an 80/20 split (you keep 80%) capped at $15,000 a year, and it's the plan that unlocks LPT's revenue-share program, where you can earn a percentage of production from agents you sponsor into the brokerage, distributed across up to seven upline tiers. Both plans carry the same per-transaction and annual fees on top of the split structure. I'd rather you hear the actual mechanics than a recruiting pitch — go review the current numbers directly on LPT's own site before you commit to a plan, since fee structures can be updated.

For a full breakdown of who each plan suits and who it doesn't, I wrote a separate page on how LPT's model works in general — this page is specifically about doing it here, in Northern Colorado.

Why Northern Colorado specifically

I work Larimer and Weld counties — Loveland, Fort Collins, Windsor, Greeley, Eaton, and the smaller towns around them. This isn't Denver. It's a market with a steady base of relocation buyers, a strong rental and investment layer tied to Fort Collins and Colorado State University, and price points that give agents room to build a sustainable book of business without needing to close a luxury deal every month to survive.

If you're a Colorado agent — new or experienced — weighing LPT against a traditional brokerage, I'm happy to talk through what the day-to-day actually looks like here, not just the national numbers. You can also see what I do for buyers and sellers and /sellers.html if you want context on how I run my own business inside this model.

Why the model matters more in a market like this one

Northern Colorado is a market where a lot of agents are part-time, seasonal, or building a book slowly while they figure out their niche. A fee structure that charges you a percentage of every check, win or lose, punishes exactly that kind of ramp-up period. A model built around flat per-transaction fees means a slow month costs you less, and that matters more here than it would in a market where every agent is closing volume every month.

I also think the revenue-share side matters specifically for agents trying to build a team here, because Larimer and Weld counties are growing fast enough that recruiting locally has real upside if the compensation structure rewards you for it. That's a different conversation than 'which brokerage has the best split,' and it's the one I actually want to have with you before you sign anything.

None of this means LPT is the right fit for every agent in this market — some people do better with a traditional brokerage's in-person culture and hands-on manager relationship, and I'd rather tell you that upfront than oversell a model that doesn't match how you like to work.

What to ask before you make the move

If you're currently at a traditional Colorado brokerage and considering a switch, ask your current broker directly what your all-in costs look like over a full year — desk fees, transaction fees, franchise fees, E&O, everything — and compare that total to what a flat-fee model would have actually charged you at your production level. Too many agents compare headline splits without doing that full-cost math, and the real answer is often different from what either brokerage's recruiting pitch would suggest.

I'd also ask about how license transfers work with the Colorado Division of Real Estate, which is a straightforward administrative process but one your new brokerage should walk you through, not leave you to figure out alone. It typically involves an activation form and a brief processing window, and you shouldn't have a gap where you're unable to practice.

Yes. LPT Realty operates in all 50 states, including Colorado, and has an active agent base in the Northern Colorado market.

What are LPT Realty's commission plans?

Agents choose between a flat $500-per-transaction fee capped at $5,000 a year, or an 80/20 split capped at $15,000 a year that also unlocks revenue share. Both carry additional per-transaction and annual fees — confirm current numbers directly with LPT before deciding.

Is LPT Realty a good fit for Northern Colorado agents specifically?

It depends on how you want to build your business. It suits agents comfortable with a cloud-based model and no physical office, who want control over their comp structure. I'm happy to talk through specifics for the Loveland, Fort Collins, Windsor, and Greeley markets.
