Stop Burning Your Contractor Contacts on Tire-Kickers

When your clients need contractor quotes for a real estate transaction, OtterQuote gets them real bids from competing contractors — without wasting anyone's time. The secret? Your client invests in professional measurements upfront, so contractors know they're serious.

How It Works for RE Agents

Share With Your Clients

Send your link to buyers, sellers, or homeowners who need exterior work quoted. They purchase professional Hover measurements, select what they need quoted, and contractors compete for the job.

3

Earn $200 Per Job

When your referral's job completes (over $10,000), you earn $200. Track everything in your partner dashboard. Bonus: recruit another agent and earn an extra $50 every time one of their referrals completes a $10K+ job.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does my client get started?

They click your referral link, create an account, and purchase Hover measurements of their property. Once the measurements are done, they select what needs quoting (roof, siding, windows, etc.), and OtterQuote automatically sends the job to competing contractors. Contractors submit bids, your client chooses one, and OtterQuote handles the contract and payment. You track it all in real-time.

What if my client already has measurements?

They can upload existing measurements or adjuster-provided data instead of purchasing Hover measurements. This is especially useful for insurance claims where the insurer has already provided documentation. OtterQuote will work with those measurements to get bids from contractors.

Do my clients pay anything?

They pay for Hover measurements upfront (typically $99–$299 depending on roof size). If they end up using one of the OtterQuote contractors for the work, we rebate that cost. The bidding, comparison, contract management, and payment processing are 100% free for homeowners — contractors pay to access quality leads through OtterQuote.

How do I track my referrals?

Your partner dashboard shows every referral, their status (measurement in progress, bidding active, job awarded, completed), and your earned commissions in real-time. You'll also get email notifications when key milestones happen — job completion, commission earned, etc.

Can I refer clients who need insurance claim help?

Absolutely. OtterQuote handles both insurance claims and retail/cash projects equally well. Storm damage claim? Post-purchase improvement? Inspection-driven repair? All earn referral commissions the same way. If the total project value is over $10,000 and completes, you earn $200.

What's the recruit bonus?

When you bring another agent to OtterQuote using your recruit link, you earn $50 for every job over $10,000 that their referrals complete. It's one level only — you earn on the people you personally recruit, not on anyone they recruit. Your recruit link is on your partner dashboard.
