Commission, Fees & What You Keep
Understand the numbers before you make a move.
What will I actually keep from each closing? Ask for the complete fee schedule and compare the same production numbers at each brokerage.
- What are the split, cap, transaction fees, and recurring charges?
- What changes after I cap, and when does the cap reset?
- Which expenses are optional, and which are required?
- What are the current eligibility, vesting, and participation rules for revenue share or equity?
Ask to see a sample commission breakdown and the current written terms. Revenue share and equity are not guaranteed income.
