We want to let you know about a new website we’ve put together for you. This won’t replace the Greenhouse, which is full of great tools provided by the brand, but we know that sometimes it can be cumbersome to find what you’re looking for among all of those options.

That’s why we’ve created the new site at https://agent.bhgrestarhomes.com. Rather than an endless maze of everything you could ever need, this site will serve as a quick place to get the things you need most, including forms for listing and spellings homes, company logo images, quick links to tools, and updates from the office.

There is also a learning section, to which we will be adding lessons on the most important topics and resources. New lessons will be added over time for you to take, and quickly reference afterward.

You should have already received an email with your username, as well as a link to setup your password (will have come from “Star Homes Hub”, check your junk folder if you don’t see it). If you have not received this email, please get in touch with me via [email protected] and I will see that it is re-sent.
