Who is Oak & Algorithm best for? Realtors, teams, loan officers, and home builders who are doing the work and still aren't getting found.

Real estate and mortgage professionals who are already doing real work but are not getting found on Google, Google Maps, or AI search: solo agents, small teams, brokerages, loan officers, mortgage brokers, and home builders, plus a few real estate adjacent businesses. The common thread is that the business is real and the visibility is not. If you are pre-license or have no budget yet, the shop is the better starting point.

Yes, as a full track with equal billing, not a side line. That means Google Business Profile and local visibility, NMLS-consistent business information AI can verify, RESPA‑minded co-marketing that gives agents something useful, referral partner outreach, and follow-up that keeps you present between closings. Details are on the mortgage marketing page and AI visibility for loan officers.

Yes. Builders get a service-area Google Business Profile, a website with town and project pages built to rank, clean directory listings, and pages ready before events like the Parade of Homes. Most builders start with the Visibility + Authority Foundation at $1,900 a month for six months, or an authority website build.

Yes. Team and brokerage AI rollouts start at $2,650 and include shared brand standards, team source files, agent onboarding, recruiting content, and live training on real work. Individual agents and loan officers can build one-to-one for $2,200, or join the AI OS Build Lab, a live four-agent cohort, at the $997 founding price. Details are on the AI Operating System page.

A fractional marketing partner builds and runs your marketing without the overhead of a full-time hire. For agents and brokerages that usually means Google Business Profile optimization, local SEO, content planning, CRM setup, and lead follow-up systems that convert. You get strategy and execution from one person instead of paying a strategist to hand you a deck. The longer answer is in what a fractional marketing partner does.

A social media manager posts. A VA executes tasks you assign. Neither one decides what should happen or why. A fractional partner owns the strategy, builds the systems, runs the execution, and tells you when something is not working. The difference shows up when nobody is telling me what to do next and the work still moves.

The Google + AI Visibility Audit is $125, includes the AI search review, and credits toward any package of $500 or more. AI Operating System builds are $997 in the founding Build Lab cohort, $2,200 one to one, and from $2,650 for teams. Systems builds are priced flat by scope. Fractional partnerships are $1,900, $2,500, or $4,000 a month. Everything is on the pricing page.

No long contract. Fractional partnerships start with three months, because visibility compounds and one month proves nothing, then go month to month with 30 days notice. Audits and builds are one-time projects with a fixed written scope. Many agencies want six to twelve months up front. I do not. Torn between the two? Read project vs retainer.

The Google + AI Visibility Audit. You get a prioritized action plan, quick wins, and a recommendation for the right next step, whether that is Google Business Profile work, CRM setup, local SEO, an AI Operating System, or a fractional partnership. If you would rather talk it through first, book a call.

Google Business Profile improvements often move within two to six weeks because the profile updates fast. Website and local SEO gains usually show up in the second and third month. Content, AI visibility, and referral positioning compound over a quarter or more. Anyone promising page one in ten days is selling you something.

Yes, and that is the whole point. Every engagement starts by documenting how you actually talk, from your real emails, texts, and captions, so nothing ships in generic agent voice. Nothing publishes until that is done. See how I work for the full process.

No. The core market is Raleigh and the Triangle, including Cary, Apex, Holly Springs, and Wake Forest, plus Lake Norman, Mooresville, and Goldsboro. Clients across North Carolina and the rest of the United States work the same way, because none of this requires me in the room.

Anyone who wants pretty posts with no system behind them, anyone looking for transaction coordination or buyer representation, anyone expecting page one in a week, and anyone whose budget is under $500 right now. That last one is not a judgment. It is a timing problem. Use the shop and come back.

Yes. Oak & Algorithm was Real Estate Concierge Services Co, LLC until September 2026. Same founder, same clients, same work. The old name described a narrower company than the one I run now.

Through AI search, Google, and social media, in that order, and never through referrals. As of late October 2026, 17 of 19 clients found me through AI search and the other two through Google. That is the same visibility system I build for clients, working on my own business first. See how Realtors get found in AI search.

No. Oak & Algorithm is a founder-led fractional marketing practice, so you work with me directly instead of an account manager, a junior team, and a content mill. Agencies sell hours and headcount. I sell a system that gets built, run, and measured. If you are weighing both, the Raleigh real estate marketing companies comparison lays out the differences.
