Sometimes I am amazed when looking at all these steps involved when working with buyers and sellers in a real estate transaction. When a person chooses to be a full time Realtor, you take on a lot of responsibility protecting the needs and wants of your clients. A great Realtor completes all these steps and the client has no idea what goes on behind the scenes. It’s similar to professional athletes who make their sport look easy to the general public when in fact there is 10x’s more effort behind the scenes.

Here’s a great explanation -long but explains what a REALTOR does & how the commission they earn is divided:
🏘️🏡🏚️🏠
On the discussion of Being a REALTOR and commissions.

There is a lot of talk in the news about real estate agent who is a Realtor and their commissions.
Most Realtors do LOVE what they do and they continue to do it because they LOVE helping people but there is almost always a huge misconception on what they do and how much they get paid. It's not a secret so here ya go...😊

As a REALTOR they do not get paid a hourly wage or salary and they only get paid if they sell a home and it closes. They can only get paid by broker to broker. As an agent you could work with someone days, weeks, months, or years with no guarantee of a sale ever.

Essentially they wake up each day unemployed going on Job Interviews and they deal with constant rejection. They dedicate time away from family, use our time, gas, pay for babysitters, miss dinner and weekends and rarely take vacations. They are on 24/7!

Costs to do business:
Broker Splits and Fees
Office rent and utilities
MLS Fees
NAR Fees
Local Association Fees
E&O Business Insurance
Extended Auto Insurance
Self-Employment Tax
State Licensing Fees
Advertising Fees
Showing Service Fees
Website Fees
Assistant's Salaries
Showing partners
Transaction coordinator
Yard Signs
Photographers
Videographers
Office Supplies
Business Cards
Property Flyers
Electronic Lockboxes
Continued RE Education
Legal Fees
Gas
Income taxes are not taken out so they have to put that aside around 25-30%.

Don’t forget health insurance if you don’t have a spouse who provides it.
