Careers

Build Your Career Where
Agents Come First

No franchise fees. No desk fees. AI-powered marketing tools. Empower was built by agents, for agents, because when our people succeed, our clients do too.

Why Empower

What You Get When You Join Us

We didn't leave the franchise model to build another version of the same thing. Empower was designed from the ground up around the agent, without the franchise overhead that eats into your earnings.

Splits Without Franchise Overhead

No franchise royalty. No desk fee. No monthly technology bill. Splits are set per agent based on production and experience, and the rest of the fee schedule is disclosed in writing before you sign.

AI-Powered Marketing

Our listing marketing can include cinematic photography, digital ads, social media, custom property websites, and premium print collateral, all included.

Real Mentorship

Learn directly from Ed Sanchez, a three-time BAOR President with $218M+ in career sales, who still lists and sells, and Claudio Madariaga, a RE/MAX Hall of Fame inductee. Not a pre-recorded webinar: real, hands-on mentorship.

Cutting-Edge Technology

AI-powered CRM, AI-drafted follow-up waiting in your queue for you to send, custom landing pages for your listings, and market analysis tools built on direct CRMLS data.

Local Brand Power

Empower is Burbank's brokerage. Ed Sanchez has served as BAOR President three times. Every decision about how you work is made in this building.

Growth, Not Bureaucracy

An 18-agent brokerage. No layers of management. No territory restrictions. Direct access to the brokers, fast decision-making, and a culture that celebrates initiative. Your growth is our growth.

The Lead Program

A Lead Program You Opt Into

The routing and claim infrastructure is built and tested, and the opt-in is signed in writing before any lead is offered. The terms are simple, and every one of them is captured in writing.

◆

No Upfront Cost

Opt in and Empower-sourced leads come at no upfront cost.

◆

A Referral Only on a Closing

A 20 percent referral on gross commission applies only when an Empower-sourced lead closes. If it never closes, you never owe it.

◆

Self-Generated Business Never Pays

Your sphere, your past clients, your personal referrals: self-generated business never pays a referral, ever.

◆

Optional, and In Writing

Participation is optional and captured in writing, never verbal, never implied.

Our Culture

What It's Actually Like to Work Here

◆

Collaborative, Not Competitive

We share strategies, celebrate each other's wins, and tackle challenges together. 18 licensed agents working as one team, not a floor full of agents competing for the same lead.

◆

Autonomy With Support

Run your business your way. When you need help; transaction support, marketing assets, negotiation strategy; we're right there. No red tape, no ticket system.

◆

Community First

We live here. We invest here. When you join Empower, you're joining a team that works in Burbank and is committed to it.

◆

New Agents Welcome

Just got your license? We'll pair you with experienced mentors, provide training, and help you close your first deal. We invest in new talent because we remember what it was like to start.
