Your Free Homebot Profile: How Real Estate Agents Can Stay Connected with Past Clients

If you've received an email saying you're now featured on a Homebot report sent to one of your past clients, congratulations—you've been added to the Homebot Network as a preferred agent.

This article provides everything you need to know about claiming your free profile and making the most of this opportunity.


What is the Homebot Network?

The Homebot Network automatically connects homeowners to their full team of trusted real estate professionals—including their agent, loan officer, insurance agent, and title agent—all within their monthly Homebot digest.

When a loan officer uses Homebot to send monthly reports to their clients, the platform uses MLS transaction data to automatically identify and brand the buyer's agent from past transactions. That means you get co-branded on your past clients' monthly home value reports without any cost or effort on your part.


How Did You Get Added?

Homebot uses MLS data to match clients with their most recent buyer's agent based on their home address and purchase date. If a loan officer is sending Homebot reports to someone you helped buy their home, you were automatically added to their team.

The homeowner will be asked to approve you as their preferred agent. If they have a new agent they're working with now, they can easily update to that person—which could become a potential referral partner for the loan officer.


How to Claim Your Free Profile

Claiming your profile is simple and completely free for real estate agents:

  1. Check your email for a weekly rollup notification showing you've been co-branded on a client's Homebot

  2. Click the link to access your Profile Manager

  3. Upload your profile photo and accept the Terms of Service

  4. Complete your profile with your name, email, company name, and logo

That's it. Your profile is now claimed and enhanced branding will appear throughout your shared clients' Homebot experience.
