Advisor Versus Agent
The purpose of an Advisor is to deliver guidance and expertise to their clients, helping them make informed business decisions. An Advisor works to create strategies and help implement those strategies within the framework of an overall personal financial or business plan. In short, Segue Real Estate Advisors work on the strategic level.
Agents on the other hand, work on a pre-determined scope of a real estate project delivering expertise and services to that specific function. In short, an Agent executes the transaction.
We take the professional approach of bringing value to our Clients and their Trusted Advisors who have real estate questions and unique situations requiring more than a listing agreement to sign and disclosures to complete. The ability to offer this needed advice is why we consider ourselves “Advisors” and not strictly transactional Real Estate Agents.

Segue Real Estate Advisors has structured our practice similar to how an Attorney or Accountant would. An assignment can be taken on a contingent basis, or for a specified fee, depending on the specifics of the engagement. Our Clients gain a great deal of flexibility in choosing only the services they need.
Using this approach, the SREA is paid for their time/work, and our Clients can save money. If consulting work is needed in order to prepare a property for sale or repositioning, the Seller would be credited/rebated all or part of the consulting fee at closing, as a portion of a real estate fee earned at closing for transactional services rendered.
In today’s real estate environment, the complexities and evolving regulatory, legal and tax landscape require the services of both an Advisor and an Agent.
We have developed a team of real estate, financial and legal professionals to assist clients at a strategic level to help deliver real estate related financial goals within the overall personal financial or business plan for future growth and optimum results in addition to significant transactional experience.
