Team Formation Process
Overview
This page outlines the steps required to form any type of team at Epique. Requirements vary by team type — make sure you review the relevant team page before submitting a formation request.
Before You Start
Before forming a team, confirm the following:

You have identified your team type and reviewed the relevant requirements
You have a team name in mind that has not yet been used

Step 1 — Submit a Team Formation Request
Submit your team formation plan to [email protected] before taking any other steps. Include:
Proposed team name
Team type (Family, Traditional, Unofficial, or Power)
Names and licence numbers of all proposed team members
Intended effective date
Do not begin using a team name or branding before receiving written approval.
Step 2 — Register Your DBA
All teams must register a DBA for their team name locally, in accordance with state laws and requirements. The DBA must also be registered with your state real estate licensing authority.
This must be completed before the team name is used in any advertising or marketing materials.

Traditional Teams and Power Teams require a signed team agreement from all team members and a Company Representative or Managing Broker. Submit the completed agreement to [email protected].
Step 4 — Get Branding Approved

Any agent joining from within Epique meets the one-year minimum if joining a Traditional or Power Team
Your internal recruitment count does not exceed the five-agent limit
