Now Recruiting Across Southern California
Build your real estate career in the light.
BrightLight Realty is a broker-led team in Encino built on mentorship, real marketing support, and splits that respect your work. If you're ready to stop guessing and start growing, we want to talk to you.
Why Agents Join Us
We're not just growing. We're building something bigger.
Led by broker Jorge Guzman, BrightLight is building toward a team of 50+ agents across Southern California. We're scaling deliberately — adding agents who want real coaching, real growth, and a real say in how the brokerage grows, not just a new logo on a business card.
No corporate quotas. No desk fees that eat your check. Just a team that's lighting a path across California and building something bigger — together.
What We Offer
Everything you need, none of the noise.
Splits That Respect You
Competitive, transparent commission splits with a clear path to grow them as you close more business — no hidden fees buried in fine print.
Direct Broker Mentorship
Work alongside brokers Jorge Guzman and Greg Paterno — hands-on guidance on contracts, negotiation, and closing, not a training video library.
Marketing & Lead Generation
In-house marketing support, listing promotion, and a steady pipeline of leads — you focus on clients, we help fill your calendar.
In-House Mortgage Partner
A direct line to our mortgage partner, Cantera Mortgage, means faster pre-quals for your buyers and fewer deals lost to financing delays.
Flexibility & Culture
Build your business on your schedule. We're a tight-knit, supportive team that celebrates wins together — not a cubicle farm.
