How do commission splits work in real estate?
Commission splits in real estate refer to the division of commission between an agent and their brokerage. When a real estate agent closes a transaction, the total commission earned is split according to the agreement with their brokerage. Traditional brokerages typically pocket 30% to 50% of the commission, leaving the agent with 50% to 70%. High commission split brokerages, on the other hand, allow agents to retain a larger portion, sometimes as much as 100%, depending on the brokerage model and fees.
What is a high commission split brokerage?
A high commission split brokerage allows real estate agents to retain a larger portion of the commission, often between 70% and 100%. In contrast, agents at traditional brokerages typically retain only 50% to 70% of the commission from each transaction, with the remaining 30% to 50% going to the brokerage.
