Wolf,

Where are you at brother? , 'cause I want to work where realtors make 15%. Vacant land, sometimes 10%; most residential listings, 6 to 7%.

Let's see... at 6%, 1/2 to selling broker, 1/2 to lister; 1/2 of that to the broker, the other half to the agent. That makes 1.5% to the agent. On a $120K house that is $1,800. Pay your own car expenses (gotta drive to those folks house to get them to sign the papers), cell phone, assoc. dues, MLS fees, health insurance, social security, etc.

Sell one a month and you can call yourself a "Million dollar" producer who makes let's see -( $1,440,000 * 2% =) $28,800. Gross. Closer to $20,000 net. But it's all worth it to get to work with people who have attitudes like yours.


BTW, why do you care what the realtor makes, you don't pay it anyway?
