Most deals cross industries. Most brokers don't.
Sell a ranch and there is land, a herd, a haul and the cover for all three: four industries, four licenses and usually four brokers. 11.broker runs it as one job, with one set of terms.

Something else
A deal in another industry. Say what it is, and the desk says whether it can be backed and what that would take.
How a job runs
Every job, on every line, goes through the same six stages. Its page shows which one it is at.
Received
The request is in and has a job number.
Scoped
The desk has said what the job covers, which licenses back it and what it costs.
Terms out
The terms are written down and with both sides to sign.
Signed
Both sides have signed the same version of the terms.
Underway
The steps on the checklist are being done.
Closed
The job is done and its record is complete.
Backed, in the open
A broker is only as good as the license behind the job. Ours are listed one by one, with the regulator that issues each and where it stands today.
