What I say on real estate commission discount
All real estate agents essentially work for a real estate broker. This broker receives all the fees that a real estate agent is paid by his or her customers. It is also the broker's job to pay agents the real estate commission and to enter an contract with the seller. A real estate agent who is new to the business may receive only a small percentage of the real estate commission. This amount may even be decreased after various fees and expenses are deducted.
