Anywhere RE Franchise: How Do I Add a New Office in darwin?

Before adding a new office in darwin, there are some aspects of setup that should be considered:

  • Is this an office for accounting purposes only, or will agents be added to this office?
    • for an office to be able to submit people and properties to dash, AccountTECH will have to initialize/synchronize the new office with dash. (please refer to you contract for the applicable charges)
    • Please email support@accounttech.com, and provide the office ID associated with the new office, along with the date the new office will be 'live' in dash
    • If this office is an acquisition, please let us know of any special considerations. For example, franchise fees are not owed for pending transactions that are pending prior to the acquisition date.
  • Are there any people, listings or transactions that need to be imported from dash?
  • Will this office process accounting entries under the existing company, or will it operate as a separate legal entity?
  • Will this office pull listings from one or more MLS's?
    • Are we already pulling from these MLSs or is it a new MLS feed we will need to setup? (please refer to you contract for the applicable charges)
    • email support@accounttech.com to provide the names of the MLS feeds

If you need assistance with any of the questions above, or if work is needed to set up integration for the new office, please reach out to the AccountTECH team at support@accounttech.com.

New Company vs. New Office?

If your new office will have a separate Company ID in dash, or if the new office will be set up with completely separate accounting systems under a new tax ID, you may need to set up a separate company within darwin.
