Questions about taxes
Realty Connect agents will need to fill out and submit a W-9 form before receiving their first referral commission payment from Realty Connect. Updated W-9 forms will also need to be submitted if any of the agent's information changes.
Realty Connect agents who received referral commissions the previous year will receive a 1099 form at the beginning of each year. This form will show referral commissions earned in order for agents to file their taxes.
Realty Connect offers referral commission payments via eCheck and paper check.
Once you have placed your referral we recommend going into your Agent Dashboard and filling out/updating your W-9. In order to get paid, the W-9 must be completed first.
You can access and update your W-9 by:
- Go to your Agent Dashboard (MyRealtyConnect.com)
- Log into your dashboard
- Select "Account Settings"
- Select "Access W-9"
- (To edit or update) Select "Open in Editor" (blue button) at the top right hand corner
- IMPORTANT: Do not forget to upload your W-9 to the Admin team you'll need to select the button that says "Upload Updated W-9"
