    Abstract: Disclosed are a method and/or a system of a real estate broker referral network platform. The method provides an interface to a referring broker licensed in a first jurisdiction to select a recipient broker chosen among a set of brokers in a second jurisdiction. The method automatically populates a set of information in a referral contract between the referring broker and the recipient broker based on a set of criteria provided by the referring broker and the recipient broker using a processor and a memory. The method determines that a referred client has entered into an escrow associated with at least one of a sale, a purchase, and/or a lease of a real property with the recipient broker with an escrow provider. The method automatically communicates the referral contract to the escrow provider which credits a consideration to the referring broker upon a close of the escrow.
