California presence
Pellego, Inc. holds California DRE corporation license 02043232. California office in Laguna Hills; designated broker Joe Homs, DRE #00702131. Official page says 346 people are licensed with Pellego in California, working from the Oregon border to San Diego.
Notes
Structured fields reflect Agent Standard. The official California page says Agent Business costs $480 more per year and saves $200 per closing, so it costs less at 3 or more deals a year. Second-state monthly fee is 50% off when the same plan is kept. The multi-state pellego.com/plans/agents page mixes several states' plan tables; California figures used here come from the Joe Homs California page, not from the mixed tables.
