Referral Partner Program

Refer a Seller.
Earn a Referral Fee.
We Pay Fast — At Closing.

If you know someone who needs to sell their Long Beach area home quickly — an estate client, a distressed seller, a landlord looking to exit — we pay a referral fee at closing. No license required to receive a referral fee under California law for non-licensees referring to a licensed party.

Who we work with

Who We Pay Referral Fees To

We partner with professionals who encounter sellers who need a fast, certain sale.

🏠

Real Estate Agents

Clients who can't list — distressed condition, tenant conflicts, urgent timeline, or too much deferred maintenance. Instead of turning them away, refer them to us and earn at closing. We never compete with your listing business.

Probate & Estate Attorneys

Clients navigating probate who need a fast, clean sale. We're experienced with the Long Beach probate court process and provide all documentation attorneys need for the sale motion.

💼

Financial Advisors & CPAs

Clients with distressed properties, landlords who need to exit for tax reasons, or seniors restructuring assets. We move fast and pay all closing costs.

🏛

Property Managers

Clients who are exhausted landlords ready to exit. You know who they are. A referral connects them with a transparent buyer and earns you a fee at closing.

📈

Mortgage Professionals

Clients who are behind on payments or facing foreclosure and need to sell before their NOD becomes a trustee sale. Timely referrals can save them from foreclosure.

👥

Other Investors

Properties outside your buy box — wrong geography, too large a project, or a situation you don't specialize in. We buy throughout Long Beach and all surrounding cities.

By submitting, you confirm the seller is aware of and consents to being contacted by Jay Buys Houses regarding a potential property purchase. Jay Buys Houses is a real estate investment company, not a licensed brokerage.

Referral Partner FAQ

California law is nuanced on this. Licensed real estate agents and brokers may receive referral fees from other licensees subject to specific conditions. Non-licensees should consult their own attorney regarding what compensation structures are permissible. Jay Buys Houses works with partners to structure appropriate arrangements for their specific situation.
Within 5 minutes during business hours (Mon–Sat 8am–7pm, Sun 10am–5pm). We know your referral is a reflection on you, and we treat them with urgency and professionalism.
No. We buy properties that can't realistically be listed — distressed condition, tenant complications, urgent timelines, or seller situations where a listing would take too long. We're not a substitute for your listing services; we're a complement for the clients you can't otherwise help.
All of Long Beach plus: Lakewood, Compton, Carson, Bellflower, Signal Hill, Hawaiian Gardens, Paramount, Norwalk, Artesia, Cerritos, and all of LA County. If you're unsure whether we cover a specific address, call us at (562) 234-2832.
