01. Getting Paid with Connect 2.0 12/10/24 9AM EST

Good morning. Good morning. Happy Tuesday. My little fa la lockup with my coffee ready to go. I think I'm gonna need, like, I think I'm gonna need, like, three cups today. Good morning, everyone. Good morning. Let us know where you're joining from. I always love to see that. You know? Kinda corny. But That's South Carolina, Georgia, South Florida, Northern Virginia, Jacksonville. Awesome. Oh, San Francisco. I know. You're up early up and at it. Love that. Good morning. Awesome. You can see for me today, it's a hat day and a double coffee day. That means I'm gonna be super productive. Just gonna get it done. Early bird gets the worm. Love that. Alright. Learning how to get paid. Yep. That's what this class is on. We're gonna talk through it, how Connect two point o integrates the new commission intake wizard. Yeah. Thank you, Linda. I have this made. It actually has my name on the side of it too. Oh, and just so you guys know, I got this at Lids. So if you go, like, in a mall, anywhere across the nation, they should actually have the LPT logo. This one and then the little one on the back as well, and you can have them custom make anything for you in there because they have our files now. So that's pretty fun. Oh, that's awesome. Yeah. Alright. So we're gonna get going here this morning. Welcome to how to get paid with LPT Connect two point o. My name is Natalie Cox, Florida broker, VP of agent community and and operations. I have Amanda Hannon here, who is our regional director as well. She is an education warrior, all things education. But we're so glad that you guys are here with us this morning, and we are going to get started. So let me mute my phone because we're gonna get nothing but dings otherwise. So sorry. Okay. So, I kinda wanna start with a dot loop, and I'm gonna share my screen here with you all because that is the best way to go about this in my experience to show you real time what this is going to look like. Here you can see my connect screen, but let me pop over to slow. Got it. Hold on. There we go. Okay. Everybody can see that. Right? One two three four Main Street, Natalie's test. I've created so many test loops. Compliance messaged me yesterday. They were like, can we get rid of these? I'm pretty sure there's, like, fifty of them by now. But you can see here in that loop, you're used to your normal flow of submitting documents. Right? And we have historically used the commission intake form. When you submit a transaction for review and you want to submit your details for us to calculate your DA or your payment, you would fill out this form. So what we're changing is that in Connect two point o with the the transaction tile, you can actually enter this information through our wizard just to make it more streamlined process for you and for us to get your payment details expedited. So this is really what we are replacing with the commission intake wizard and what I'm gonna show you today. A couple of things about that. Some people are like, oh, can I not use, you know, the LPT commission intake form anymore? Well, we're not taking it from you. Right? So we're not necessarily cutting making that a hard cutoff. However, we really would prefer that everyone get into the rhythm of using the wizard When we get to, you know, a higher transaction count during the spring months and we're getting really busy, the wizard is going to create a lot of efficiency for all of us. So using that wizard, there will come a time where we start prioritizing the files that use the wizard because it's obviously faster to get it done that way. We wanna use technology and innovation to help boost our productivity. So, just letting you know. If you really want to still use the commission intake form, we have not pulled that and said you can't do it, but we would like everyone to try with the with the new wizard. Test it out, see how it works for you. It really is kind of the same information, and you have a note field on almost every section. So you if you have something you need to relay to the DA specialist, you can type it in the notes and still get the same point across. We're not gonna, you know, tie you down. You can communicate directly with us in that way. So just a few details about when you create your dot loop. Of course, here, we always wanna make sure that we have the status. Right? I have here that I'm under contract. You see you have your different, different statuses you can put this in. Always keep that as up to date as you can. It is helpful for us to have the close date, and and have these details just at a glance. But what I do wanna point out is you are still using Dotloop for your document submission. Right? So even though you're filling out the intake wizard in Connect, you still will use Dotloop to write all of your forms. Or if you're using a third party platform or, like, FormSimplicity or maybe you like, SkySlope or something of that nature, You can still use those, but you will need to upload them to Dotloop. We are working on getting other platforms integrated with Connect two point o so they communicate with each other. So that'll be in the next few weeks. So you don't necessarily have to go to Dotloop, but we're not there yet. So if you get your forms filled out on another platform, you're still gonna come to Dotloop. You're still gonna create your loop and just upload all of those forms in one swoop if you like. That way our compliance team can come in and look at everything for compliance purposes. The other thing is you wanna make sure that your name is associated with the file and dot loop. That's gonna be especially important if you have a TC or if you're on your t on a team. That's all well and good. Because I'm putting this into dot loop myself, it's going to add me automatically. But if you have someone doing it for you, you do wanna make sure that your name and your right here, I have an established my role as a buying agent, and then it's associated with my email. The reason for that is when dot loop and connect talk to each other and it imports into connect, we wanna make sure that your name is associated with that file. So this is where it would pull that information from. So here is my fake example loop and dot loop, and make sure you guys are putting your questions in the chat. I know there's going to be some. We wanna answer as many as we can. I know Amanda's helping with that as we're talking through, and at the end, I'll look through some questions as well. So say that I have my forms uploaded here for my purchase, and I'm ready to submit the file to LPT for review and fill out my commission intake form to say how this money is being paid out. I have my loop, and then I'm going to go over to LPT Connect. And here, there's a couple of ways. I can click add transaction here, or I can go to this my biz button and click add transaction here. But when I'm ready transaction. Okay. So notice the first pop up I get here is going to be the dot loop importer. So I'm going to type in the address of the property, my loop, and I can see it right here. One two three four Main Street, Natalie's test. I will say it does take about, I'm gonna say, three minutes. I don't know why that seems to be the magic number, but it takes about three minutes for Connect to recognize the new file in dot loop if you're doing this all at one time and you're doing it quickly, but it's pretty fast how it it recognizes the file. I'm gonna click on my file and select import. Okay. So that brings me to the commission intake wizard. Here, it's going to import a couple of things for me. Notice my name, the transaction type, and that it's pending because I did put it as under contract in that loop. So it's going to ask me for the address again. And sure. It will say three two seven seven one. Property address, and I move on to my next step. Now it asked me for the transaction details. K? So it automatically imported the transaction type as a residential purchase. Notice that I can click here if for some reason it's wrong and change it in this drop down box. K? It asked for the close date, the contract execution date, which I will make for today, and then the MLS number. So this would be the MLS number of either the property that I am listing and representing the seller and or the landlord or the MLS number of the property that my buyer is purchasing in this instance. Here you have hey. How do you wanna get paid if you're in a single check state? Right? So there's there's two different ways agents get paid depending on your state. Some are single check, some are split check. Split check, you can get paid at closing at the DA table. So easy peasy. If you're in a split check state, you don't even necessarily need to pick anything here. You can move on to the next step. If you're in a single check state, you understand that LPT has to receive the entire amount of commission, and then we pay you from the commission because that's what your state law requires. There's multiple ways you can choose to get the funds to us, and then we can pay you out. So those options are you can ACH. The title company can ACH the funds directly to LPT our closing attorney. If you'd like to go that route, it is ten dollar risk fee, and there's a deposit link form you're going to need here for that information. If you would like to wire the funds, have the title company or closing attorney wire the funds to us, which is pretty quick. There's a thirty dollar risk fee for wires, and you have the wire form. There's some protections there, some, policies and procedures we have to go through to make sure the wire information is accurate with the title company or closing attorney. Then your option is you could have them mail it. I don't recommend having them mail it, but you certainly can choose that. Agent choice. They can do snail mail. They can overnight it to our office. All of those addresses for remittance of payments are in LPT Connect and knowledge base, so you can choose what's best for you. Then we have the fourth option, which is you can pick up the check that's made out to LPT from the title company or closing attorney, and you can turn go to one of our Chase or Truist, banks and deposit that into our deposit account there. Instructions for that are in knowledge base for LPT Connect as well. Then you just put in a ticket and let us know, hey. I need this deposit, and then we can get you paid out. Notice here, I do wanna point out, this method takes about twenty four hours for us to see it in our account. So let's say it's a Friday at noon. Right? And you have a closing and you're doing the pickup method, you do wanna keep in mind it's probably going to be Monday before we see those funds in our account. And there's actually another option we don't have listed on here that I wanna point out is that you can go to an LPT Connect. The tile is called commission concierge. Okay? If you are in a single check state and you live in a rural area, you do not have access to a Chase or Truist bank account, you can actually register for our JPMorgan Access commercial bank app. That's a mouthful. And you can actually take a picture of the check, and it will deposit it into our commercial bank account within minutes. So it's very fast. We get the money very fast, and then we can turn it around to you. There's also a process where you do need to submit it submit a ticket to us so we know, hey. I just deposited, you know, ten thousand dollars into the JPMorgan bank account, and I'm looking to get paid. There is a process for those, but that is very fast way for you to get paid in a single check state and an option that's available to you. So if you'd like to do that option, go to commission concierge tile, scroll down to the bottom, and opt in to the JPMorgan access app. You'll have to put in your phone number, and then you'll receive a registration email to go through those steps and register with them. I will say please do it from your mobile device if you choose to do that because your phone is what you're gonna be using to take those pictures, not your laptop. So, moving on, those are your options. So if I'm in a single check state, I'm gonna let, the DA team know how I would like to get the funds to LPT so they can turn them around and get them back to me as soon as possible. So I'm gonna choose check pickup. Next step. Okay. So here, it's gonna ask me the sales information. What is the list price? Well, I'm gonna say that I rocked it out, and I got my buyer a really good deal. So we have list price. We have the actual sales contract price, and then we have the commission type. This is the commission that is coming to me as the buyer's agent or the buyer's representation. So I have the option to choose if it's a percentage or a flat amount. Here, I'm going to say it's three percent that I negotiated. Notice here, it's going to ask, is the commission being paid in installments? This would apply to builders and or some commercial deals. Unfortunately, we don't have a mechanism to enforce or allow consumers to pay commission in installments, so just keep that in mind. A lot of commercial transactions do get pay agents do get commissions paid out in installments, so that's what this box pertains to. Notice here it says, be sure to include any other fees you're collecting. Okay? I'm collecting as a part of my commission or from the consumer. So are you collecting any other fees? I'm going to click add fee here. It's going to give me the options. Am I collecting a transaction fee? Am I collecting an MLS fee or a bonus? K? So in this instance, I'm going to collect a transaction fee, and that's going to be three ninety five in this example. I click submit, and notice it's going to start keeping a breakdown of the transaction and tallying the funds over here on the right. Once I confirm that I don't have any other fees that I'm collecting as a part of commission, bonus, MLS fee, transaction fee, I move on to the next step. Okay. So here, it is my client's page. Notice that it has imported my client, my fake client, from Dotloop automatically. It also imported me, although I am the agent, and this is something we're working on. So you can ignore this for now. It put me there. We'll make sure that that that that is fixed. But you obviously you're could be considered a a client of LPT because you're the one that we're serving. Right? But all in all, your client here is the one you have listed on the contract. That's who you need to list in this client section. If their name is on the contract and they're purchasing a property, then you need to list them here. So I'm gonna go into Casey Haas, for example, that it imported from Dotloop because I had her email and her legal name, and I'm going to code her. Like, what kind of client type is she? In this instance, she's a buyer. I can choose to put additional information about Casey here and any notes that I wanna add and save, and then it's going to list her as the buyer. I can add a new client. It's important to make sure that you have all the clients on the contract in this section, and you'll see why as we're moving forward. Moving on to my next step. Now I have the parties in the transaction. Right? So notice here, all parties involved in the transaction should be included, such as the opposing broker, title company, referral agent, if there is one, a mentor, a lead source, and any other relevant entities. So any parties to the transaction, I wanna add them in this section. Again, it's very much like filling out the commission intake form where we ask you for the title company. We ask you for the other agent and broker. Same concept here. You're just adding them in, to these spaces. So let's say, for instance, that this is a Zillow lead. K? This buyer lead for me personally is a Zillow lead. I would scroll to the party type and put in referral. It then pops up a box that says existing referral. Now I can see here that we have hard coded into the system some of our most common lead sources, which would be Zillow, Obsidian, HomeValue. If it's not one of these guys, then I would simply just type in the agent's information that gave me this referral. Jane Doe, Keller Williams under the company name and put in her email phone number, you get the picture. In this instance, I'm gonna say this was a Zillow lead, and notice that it does fill this out for me automatically. And then I just select add party. K? Now you can see that Zillow is here, and that will be important as we're moving forward. Okay. Moving on. Notice that we now come to the fees due page. Listen. Are there any fees that you owe to the other brokerage from your commissions to the other broker, like an MLS fee, right, which we get we have all kinds of debates about. And some people, some states, they're like, I've never even heard of an MLS fee. Totally fine. Then just move on to the next step. If there are, you would toggle over to yes. Similar to the previous page we saw, we click add fee, and this is what I'm going to be paying out to the opposing broker. And then I have the option, is it a transaction fee, an MLS fee, or a bonus I'm paying to the other broker? And then I can code it appropriately. So here, I'm gonna just say, for example, reasons that I'm giving two hundred dollars for an MLS fee for whatever reason, to the opposing broker. The way that we used to see this written on the MLS when commissions were written on the MLS, and I still see it on compensation forms, is where it would have, you know, what are you offering the buyer's broker? And it would they would say three percent minus two hundred dollars. That's the way they would write it on the MLS, or now I'm seeing them write it that way on compensation forms. So in this instance, that is what the the MLS fee would be. Notice here it's gonna keep an ongoing tally as we're moving through, and we're gonna go on to the next step. We come to the credits page. Are there any credits, due to the buyer or seller from your commission? Say I've had an instance with a buyer. In order to save this deal, let's pretend that I needed to give a thousand dollar credit to my buyer in this instance. Notice that it's here. It's going to pull the client from my client's page. So if I don't have my clients entered into my client's page, I can't assign that thousand dollar credit. So that's why it's important to have them listed out on the clients page. Let's say it's Casey. I'm going to give her a credit that is a flat amount, and it's going to be one thousand dollars. Submit. K? You can see here it has, again, this ongoing tally of what the commission looks like as I'm moving through filling out all this information. I move on to my next step if there's no more credits, and then I come to my referral source page. Do I owe any of my commission to a referral source? Alright? So in this instance, it populated my referral party, Zillow, because I put that on my party's page. Right? So I would toggle over to yes. I can click edit and take a look at what this looks like here. Zillow, we know that Zillow charges, hard hard charges thirty percent. Right? So we have that wired in here for you hardwired in. And if I needed to add a referral source, I can click add. Notice that they do need to be on my party's page, though. So if this referral source was Jane Doe with Keller Williams, I would just go down and select Jane Doe with Keller Williams because I have her on my party's page. And then you can, write in free form the amount that you would owe her for the referral, and it would record it here. Notice you have advanced options. If I click on this button, you'll see here that it's going to give me the opportunity to include or exclude certain fees or credits into the referral amount. The reason for this, Zillow, for example, they charge thirty percent of all fees that you collect. So if you collect three percent commission, if you collect the five thousand dollar bonus and a transaction fee, Zillow is going to charge you thirty percent off the top through throughout all of those fees. They will not just charge you thirty percent on the three percent. It's all monies you make. Whereas with Jane Doe from Keller Williams, typically, you're giving, an agent to agent referral off of the percentage that you agree upon in your referral, agreement, which would be three percent in this instance. And I'm not typically giving her three percent of my transaction fee, which would be three ninety five. So you have the option to come here and exclude or include appropriately based on that referral source and what your agreement looks like with that referral source. K? Alright. So moving on to our next step here. Okay. This is actually the last page, so see how fast that was. This is where we have to essentially assign the commission. We have a tally going on over here. This is where we can say, hey. I'm the only agent on this deal, or maybe you are a coagent on this property, and you have a split that needs to go to a participating agent. There's a there's an option for this. We're gonna look at that. Notice these two red boxes, transaction fee not met. So this is saying basically that LPT Realty does collect one ninety five from each transaction, and we don't we're not sure where that money is coming from yet. So I'm gonna get to add that information with this box. We can also see that because I'm charging three ninety five, that there's an excess of two hundred dollars, and the system needs to know where is that two hundred dollars going. So when I click on add primary agent commission, it's going to hardwire my name as the primary agent receiving the commission because this is my file. This is from dot loop. This is what I'm entering into the transaction wizard. So it's going to recognize me as the primary agent. And then it's going to give me a couple of options. Is this a low GCI opt in? As you guys know, sometimes there's transactions where the commissions are lower. Let's say the commission's a thousand dollars on this deal for me. And maybe even though I'm on the five hundred dollar per file business builder, maybe I don't wanna pay five hundred dollars plus plus a transaction fee, six ninety five, on a thousand dollar commission, because it doesn't make sense for me. I can choose to, and it will go toward my cap, or I can say, you know what? I'm more interested in keeping money in my pocket on this transaction because the commission's so low. So I would like to opt in to the low GCI option, which means twenty percent would go to LPT, eighty percent to you as the agent. It doesn't go towards cap, but there's also no transaction fee. So in that instance, I'm getting eight hundred dollars from that thousand. LPT is getting two hundred as opposed to the six ninety five. That is your choice on any transaction. It's agent choice, and you can opt into that just by checking this box when you come to this section. Say that this is a personal deal. My name is on the deed of a property, and this is a personal deal for me. The fees are lower for that scenario, so you can select to opt into that here. So just treating this as a normal transaction, I'm gonna say that, hey. I am receiving a hundred percent of this commission, right, because I'm the primary agent. The one ninety five transaction fee, I'm going to cover the one ninety five transaction fee. Notice when I type that in that it zeros this out. And then I am going to also receive the excess two hundred dollars from the three ninety five that I'm collecting. So the system is basically wanting you to assign which agent is going to pay the transaction fee and which agent is going to receive the difference. Notice that there's a note section here. You can type out your heart's desire. Okay? If there's any kind of special provisions, make sure that you include it here. What if, for example, let's just for, is there a split owed to another agent? No or yes? Let's say yes. Let's pretend that I, I have a co agent on this deal who has helped me with this transaction, and let's say I'm going to split it with them fifty fifty. You would need to make sure the agent is added to the party's page. Right? So you could freeform their name in here, this box as well, but adding them to the party's page too is important. And then you have the split type. Am I splitting it with the other agent, let's say, Amanda Hannon? Am I splitting it with her at fifty fifty, or is there a certain amount of this transaction for a flat amount we have agreed upon? So here I'm gonna say percentage, and I'm splitting it with her fifty fifty. For those of you who are on Teams, this is how it can be written in for your team lead as well. Right? Your team lead may or may not get a certain percentage, and then you get the remaining percentage of the transaction. I can designate here. Let's say I only, as the primary agent, Natalie Cox, wanted to pay a hundred dollars of the transaction fee. I can designate here in this box ninety five dollars and then a hundred on my split, breakdown and as well as the two hundred dollars as well. So you can customize this between the two agents. Again, you can write notes. And when I click add split here, notice that when I go into mine now, it has defaulted it to fifty percent because I have added a split with another agent. If you need to pay a third party from your fifty percent, let's say I have in some states, a TC is allowed to be paid. They would need to be on the party's page, then I can select them there and write in the amount that they're being paid from the transaction. That's an option for you as well. K? Over here on my right now, these boxes have turned green because we have allocated where that one ninety five is being paid from for LPT, also the excess of two hundred dollars, and then we have the ongoing tally of how the split and what's being collected, what's being paid out. Now I do wanna show you or point out that notice this is doesn't include the LPT comp plan fees. Okay? So some of you might have an annual transaction fee that has to come out of this. We haven't factored in that five hundred dollars and or the eighty twenty, whichever plan you're on. This is not meant to be something that necessarily shows you your amount automatically. Remember, this is replacing the commission intake form. So this is where we're taking in all the information about the the transaction. We still have to calculate on the back end with our DA team and our specialists and get you your final DA and your final numbers. So I just wanna point out that that is not accounted for here in this breakdown, so this would not be my final number. I shouldn't let it look at that and think, oh, my my check or my deposit is gonna be for exactly this amount. That will not be the case. You'll need to refer to your final DA from the DA team. So two well, couple of more things. I have this green button down here, submit file for review. What that's going to do is submit all of my documents from Dotloop to the compliance team as well as my commission intake wizard information that I just filled out to the DA team. It's going to do both. And when I click that button, I can put notes in here. Right? Anything any kind of weird split, something you have a question about, remember, we are going to be coming in here, and we are going to be double checking and and also making sure that the information you put in is ready to go and be submitted. So feel free to put notes there. You also have two buttons up here. I could come in here at any time, and I can submit my file for review to the compliance team through this process without filling out the commission intake wizard if I if I chose. So I maybe there's too much of variables right now. I don't wanna fill out the intake form yet. I can still, sync Dotloop and the wizard together and then just click submit for review, and it's going to send all of my contract files to compliance and say, hey. Somebody review this. Right? Same thing for the intake form. I could just fill out the intake form and not necessarily submit my compliance documents for review. This would be that button. So there's a mechanism for you to submit it how you choose, and, again, we have to review it on the back end. So just to show you all one more thing here, and then I'll take a look at the chat for questions. Let's say I submit my file for review, but then something changes. Let's say the purchase price changes or my commission changes because I had to negotiate it to keep the deal together or alive for whatever reason. You can come to going back to transactions. You can come to your transactions page, and you see here this says some file submitted for review. You're gonna be able to see your files here. If the intake has been received. You have these different codings. Okay. So let's say here I need to make a change on this specific transaction, and I've already submitted everything. I can come in, click intake wizard here again on the the transaction I need to make an alteration to. Notice it says your file is currently being reviewed by our team. To update your transaction, please submit a change request. I can then click this request change button, and then it has a pop up box that allows me to freeform and fill out whatever changes are needed to the intake so that we can recalculate, your DA. So that is how you would submit a change if you've already submitted it through the wizard and you need to correct something. Okay. So having said that, I'm sure you guys have lots of questions. Let me go to the chat. Hopefully, was pretty clear and made sense on how this is going to work. Okay. Yeah. Ron, it can feel like a lot. I promise it's a little bit more simple than I feel the commission intake form, though. Yep. Right now, you have the option to do it this way or to fill out the commission intake form. I feel like this way is actually a lot faster, so give it a try. Give it Natalie, there are a couple questions that I didn't know the answer to. One was if we are in a same seat rev share partnership, do they input the fifty percent for all transactions, or is that automatically factored into the commission calculations from the system? So if you are a seat share, it is coded on the back end. Everything is split fifty fifty. Right? But I would still put the notes into just I would do it the exact same way that you fill out the commission intake form. So whatever you've put on the in commission intake form historically is the same way I would fill it out in the wizard, and I would make sure to put that note there for compliance. Like, please understand this is a seed share. Right? That way that they can make sure it's calculated correctly. But that's a great question. Yeah. And we had another one, that said, how would you represent a scenario where the percentage? That's a great question too. So for that one, I would make sure on the party's page that you add them as well. So you're going to have the opposing broker if it's a listing commission split. Right? And that commission would be coming from them. Make sure they're added on the party's page. I will need to talk to Deb about that specifically because there will be scenarios where you have a buyer that's contributing a point five or one percent or maybe even paying the full three percent. So I will have to look and see. Let me pop over and look at it. That's a good question, though. Let me look while we're sitting here because I wanna get it answered real time. Seconds. Yeah. So at this point, what I would do is put the total amount of commission you are collecting. Okay? So that is on and let me just share my screen real quick. And I'll see too if we can get a button for this to make it more transparent for you all. But I would make sure that you're putting the full amount you're collecting per your BDA. Right? So that's gonna go here in this commission percentage. When you move on and you have the note section where we saw submit, here, this final page when you're submitting for review, which I already did and the note section pops up, I want you to go ahead and type in seller or listing broker contribution, two percent, buyer contribution to commission, one percent. If you have a scenario where you have it coming from dual both, parties, make sure the parties are added on the parties page. Make sure you're putting in the total on that first, where how much of the fees are being collected, and then you designate in the note section, hey. Here's this is coming from the sell two percent from the seller, one percent from the buyer. So, again, just make sure that you're writing as much information into the note section as possible if you have a scenario like that. This isn't automatically being calculated on the back end. Real people are going through this information just like the commission intake form and calculating it correctly. So you can write anything in there to clarify The more, the better, in my opinion. Okay. Yes. I can. Let me just show you again how you get to adding the transaction, and I should just leave my screen up probably. That way I can make sure you guys see everything. Okay. So sorry, I have a fun bar here. When you're inside LPT Connect, you can click add transaction here where it says import and submit your transactions, or you can go to my biz and you can click add transaction here. Or let's say I'm in the transactions tab, add new transaction right here. K? And you will see them listed here and what stage they're in. These are all test loops for me. I am so, yeah, you can see how it looks there. Great question, though. What other questions do you guys have? Off topic. Is there a logo file format we can use for embroidery? There is, Frankie. So there is, there's a whole logo file for you guys available in knowledge base. So if you go to your LPT Connect, you click on the support tab on the right hand side. You can go to the Connect one point o knowledge base. Click that, and then type in logos or LPT logos or just logo is probably better into the search bar, and it will pull up different files for you. Lisa, we are working on a solve for SkySlope to import this way too. We're in the middle of getting that rolled out where they connect and talk to each other. So if you use SkySlope right now, you can use SkySlope for everything. It's just when you're ready to submit your file for review, you would have to go to your dot loop, make a loop. I would literally, from SkySlope, download everything into a file, move over to dot loop, upload it, change that status at the top, and then go to the intake wizard. I know it seems it it it is an extra step, but it actually can be pretty pretty fast. You don't have to necessarily separate everything out. Again, it's just for compliance purposes, so you would have to just upload it there. I know it's easier to do it in a in a fail swoop. Okay. Yes. Do note that in the commission section, please. If you are getting a percentage, you have a three percent on your BBA, two percent coming from the seller, one percent coming from the buyer. Make sure that you're putting the total in the commission section that your BBA says. And then in the notes, you are designating who that comes from. So we have that information. How do you reach the wizard if the transaction was already added? I'm going to, show you guys how to do that too one more time before we close down. But for a pending file so if you have already submitted a commission intake form and you submitted your files for review through Dotloop, the traditional way we've always done it, you don't need to come in and do the wizard. So the wizard is for transactions where you haven't already submitted it. I saw somebody had a glitch where they submitted the wizard, and then somebody asked them about the commission intake form. You don't need to do both. It's one or the other. So if you haven't done it yet, yes, you can. If you have already done it, there's no need to do it twice. Okay. So just to show you guys one more time how the change works, and then I'm gonna have to shut it down before Hodge kicks me off for the next meeting. Let me go back to the wizard here. Okay. So when I go to my transactions in Connect, it's gonna show me the status here. You can see I have a lot of things Practice Sloot submitted. This one, they have received the intake form. So I'm gonna click on this transaction if I have a change. I'm going to go back to the intake wizard here, And you can see it says your file is currently being reviewed by our team. To update your transaction, please submit a change request. I can do that by clicking this request change and then typing any notes or changes that I need to make to the transaction. So that's how you're gonna update information. Say there's a price change, a commission change, and that will send the note over to compliance through the wizard and the DA team. Alright? So, hopefully, this information was helpful. There is recordings of this on, knowledge base as well. If you go to knowledge base, by clicking that support tab in Connect two point o. Go to Connect one point o knowledge base. Type in the search bar there, marathon. You're gonna see all the classes we we recorded last week, populate, and then we will be putting these recordings this week in there as well. If you guys have questions, please submit a ticket.
