CAPPING

100%Commission

Once an associate of ours hits their “cap,” they make 100% commission for the rest of their anniversary year. We make it simple to go from paying a commission split to keeping your full commission and coach you how to get there as quickly as possible.

Here is the breakdown of how fast you will go from paying a commission split to keeping your full commission:

as a new agent, the commission split is 70/ 30. 70% to the agent and 30% to the brokerage

when our agents cap, they have the option to advance their commission split based on their production (for example 75/25 or 80/20)

an average new agent with a 70/30 split can cap after closing around $5.5 million in closed transactions and receive 100% commission within their anniversary
