THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT INVITING AGENTS:
You can invite your agents to join Homebot for free, at no cost to you or them through our Freemium option. Learn more about Freemium here.
For agents ready to utilize Homebot, you can invite them into Homebot on a paid account: meaning they have access to all Homebot's features and can import up to 500 clients.
You must have or upgrade to a Pro account to invite agents. If you are on Base and invite an agent, you will automatically upgrade to Pro once your agent accepts. Pricing may vary. Please reach out to our support team using the chat feature in the right-hand corner for pricing questions.
Once an agent accepts your invite to join on a paid account, your account will automatically reflect those changes to the billing period moving forward.
HOW TO INVITE AGENTS

For questions on how sponsoring agents may affect your billing, please reach out to [email protected] directly or shoot us a message via the pink chat icon in the right-hand corner!

HOW TO MANAGE YOUR INVITES:

Use the Pending Requests tab to manage agents you've already invited to join Homebot, as well as agents who have requested you and their lender co-sponsor.

Approve agent co-sponsor requests by clicking the blue Confirm button next to the corresponding Agent. Let's take Fariba Jackson as an example.

Click Yes to confirm that you would like to co-sponsor Fariba or cancel to exit out of the page and go back to the Pending Requests page.
To reject an agent co-sponsorship request, click Deny next to the corresponding agent. Let's take Steve as an example.
Once you click Deny, a new modal to confirm your choice will appear (featured below).
Click Yes to confirm that you would like to deny co-sponsorship Steve or, no, go back to exit out of the page and go back to the Pending Requests page.
Finally, cancel your pending co-sponsoring requests to agents if you change your mind and decide not to extend an invitation to an agent.
Navigate to the Agent whose pending invitation you want to cancel, and click Cancel. Once you click Cancel, a new modal to confirm your choice will appear:
