Mechanism of cooperation and the difference between the real estate developer, the contractor, and the real estate agent

Concepts and nomenclature often get mixed up between people regarding real estate parties (developer, contractor, agent), and we at Homes Jordan will define the role and tasks of each party in a simple and quick way, for you to know in detail how to cooperate between all parties, and how to direct the customer according to his requirements and needs.


•Real Estate Developer 

It's you! The owner of the land and the idea, and the main financier of the projects, is the one who does the feasibility study for each project, studies the market requirements, and puts plans for implementing the project and achieving profits. He is the one who appoints the contractor or contracting company that will implement the project, in addition to developing sales strategies and agreeing with the real estate broker to achieve sales.


•Contractor 

He is the person responsible for executing the real estate developer’s plan, which starts from the stage of purchasing the materials and equipment necessary to build the project, daily supervising the implementation of the construction of the project, following up all the stages it goes through during its implementation period, and monitoring the occurrence of any obstacles or problems during the implementation process that may sometimes force him to Consult the real estate developer and discussing with him the optimal solutions, until he reaches the stage of handing over the project ready and completed to the real estate developer on time.

•Real estate agent

Many people may ask; Is the real estate agent the same as the real estate broker?

Let us explain the difference with a simple example between an agent and a mediator.

Real estate, in addition to its digital and traditional marketing operations, Homes Jordan also entrusts the completion of all banking procedures and the transactions of the Department of Survey and Land to finalize the sale process, in addition to carrying out the real estate marketing process.

He only presents the property to the researchers, as he does not undertake the responsibility of managing the property, and the interest for the real estate broker is (mediation cost), i.e., a percentage of the commission from the sale or purchase process.
